Workin' For Mca Lyrics - Second Helping - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Seven years of hard luck, comin' down on me 

From the Florida border, yeah up to Nashville, Tennessee 

I worked in every joint you can name, mister every honky tonk 

Along come Mr. Yankee Slicker, sayin' maybe you're what I want 

[Chorus] 

Want you to sign your contract 

Want you to sign today 

Gonna give you lots of money 

Workin' For MCA 

Nine thousand dollars, that's all we could win 

But we smiled at the Yankee Slicker with a big ol' Southern grin 

They're gonna take me out to California, 

Gonna make me a superstar 

Just pay me all of my money 

And mister maybe you won't get a scar 

[Chorus] 

Suckers took my money since I was seventeen 

If it ain't no pencil pusher, it got to be a honky tonk queen 

But I'll sign my contract baby, and I want you people to know 

That every penny that I make, I'm gonna see where my money goes 

[Chorus]
