Working For Mca

Seven years of hard luck comin' down on me From a motor boat, yes, up in Nashville, Tennessee I worked in every joint you can name, yes, every honky tonk They all come to see Yankee slicker saying, baby, you're what I want Want you to sign the contract Want you to sign the date Gonna give you lots of money Workin' for MCA Oh, nine thousand dollars just to sow to the wind Come to smile at the Yankee slicker with a big old southern grin They're gonna take me out to California, gonna make me a super star Just pay me all my money, mister, maybe you won't get a star Want you to sign the contract Want you to sign the date Gonna give you lots of money Workin' for MCA [Guitar solo] Slickers steal my money since I was seventeen If it ain't no pencil pusher then it got to be a honky tonk queen But I signed my contract, baby, and I want you people to know That every penny that I make, I gotta see where my money goes Want you to sign the contract Want you to sign the date Gonna give you lots of money Workin' for MCA
