Whoa, and when I get the paper
I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to say
If there is any work for me
And then I go back to the house
Hear the woman's mouth
(Preaching and a-crying
Tell me that I'm lying about a job
That I never could find)
Sha-na na-na, sha-na na-na na (ba doo)
Sha-na na-na, sha-na na-na na (ba doo)

Well, when I get the paper
I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to say
If there is any work for me
And then I go back to the house

Tell me that I'm lying about a job
That I never could find)
