I Can't Wait To Get Off Work (and See My Baby On Montgomery Avenue) Lyrics - Small Change - Tom Waits

Well I don't mind working 

cause I used to be jerkin off 

most of my time in the bars 

I been a cabbie and a stock clerk 

and a soda fountain jock jerk 

and a manic mechanic on cars 

It's nice work if you can get it 

now who the hell said it 

I got money to spend on my gal 

but the work never stops 

and I'll be busting my chops 

working for Joe and Sal.

And I can't wait to get off work 

and see my baby 

she said she'd leave the porch lite 

on for me 

I'm disheveled I'm disdainful 

and I'm distracted and it's painful 

but this job sweeping up here is 

is gainfully employing me tonight 

 

Tom do this Tom do that 

Tom, don't do that 

count the cash, clean the oven 

dump the trash oh your lovin 

is a rare and a copasetic gift 

and I'm a moonlight watchmanic 

it's hard to be romantic 

(sweeping up over by the 

cigarette machine 

sweeping up over by the cigarette machine...)

I can't wait to get off work 

and see my baby 

she'll be waiting up with a magazine for me 

clean the bathrooms, clean um good 

oh your lovin I wish you would 

come down here and sweepameoffmyfeet 

this broom'll have to be my baby 

if I hurry, I just might 

get off before the dawns early light.
