Lyrics Ain't That a Bitch (Live At Onkel Pö's Carnegie Hall, Hamburg 1976) - Johnny "Guitar" Watson

I? m working forty hours
Six long days
And I? m highly embarrassed
Every time I get my pay
And they working everybody
Lord, they working poor folks to death
And when you pay your rent and your car notes
You ain? t got a damn thing left
Ain? t that a bitch, yes it is
Somebody doing something slick, there they are
It′s got me wondering which is which
Mighty as well go out of town and dig a ditch
Ain? t that a bitch, yes it is
Now ain't that a bitch
Lemme tell you about my qualifications
I program computers
I know accounting and psychology
I took a course in business
And I can speak a little Japanese, fox on
Gotta work two years
To get one week off with pay
And when I? m on my job
I better watch every word I say
Ain? t that a bitch, oh boy
Somebody doing something slick, downtown
It′s got me wondering which is which
Mighty well, go out of town and dig a ditch
Ain? t that a bitch, it's way, way to cold
Ain? t that a bitch
Make me wanna holler, Lord, Lord
Lord, have mercy to see
Won't somebody please help me to see land, Lord
I want to play the guitar, come here guitar
Somebody doing something silly
Now listen to this
Stop at the supermarket
To get myself something to eat
And when I look at the prices
They knock me off of my feet
I was in the baloney section
And I had to take myself a close look
Now [Incomprehensible] couldn′t have made these prices
With a sky hook
Ain? t that a bitch, yes, it is
Somebody doing something slick, here they are
It′s got me wondering which is which
Mighty well go out of town and dig a ditch
Ain't that a bitch, ain′t that a bitch
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick, ain't that a
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick
Surely there? s something slick going on
Somebody′s show slick, ain't that a
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick
Surely there? s something slick going on
Somebody′s showing slick
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick
Surely there? s something slick going on
Surely there? s something slick
