Get Downtown Lyrics - Big To-do - Drive By Truckers

Kim said, "Jimmy, you better get yourself 

Op off of that raggedy couch 

I'm too pretty to work and I'm tired 

Of you uglying up my house" 

Jimmy said, "Baby, the guys at the top

Foreigners are coming in and doing our jobs 

For half of what they would've paid me" 

You mean half of what you would've made 

For something you've never done 

Sounds like the bright side to all this 

Jimmy is you're asking price went up 

Now get downtown, see what you can find 

Put your face in someone's that ain't mine 

Looks like the unemployment blues 

Are wearing out your house shoes 

Baby, left when your boots came untied 

Jimmy said, "Baby, if I work for you're daddy 

It's worse than being his son" 

Kim didn't like what he said one bit

She said, "My daddy took good enough care of my mama 

She hardly had to say a thing" 

Jimmy said, "That's part of what's wrong" 

Kim said, "Don't you say another
