Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][B][Em][G][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Well, I [G]had
just got out [D]from [G]the county prison
[D]Doin' ninety days for non- [A]support
[D]Tried to find me an [A]execu[D]tive position
But no matter how smooth I talked
[G]They wouldn't listen to the fact
that I was genius
The man say,
"we [C]got all that we [A]can use"
Now I got [D]them steadily

[Verse 2]
[G]depre[B]ssin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working at [D]the car wash blues

[Verse 3]
Well, [G]I should be sittin' [D]in
an [G]air conditioned of[D]fice
In a swivel chair
Talkin' some trash to the secretaries
Sayin', "here, now mama,
come on over [G]here"
[D]Instead, I'm[G] stuck here rubbin'
these fenders with a rag
And [C]walkin' home in soggy old [A]shoes
With [D]them steadily

[Verse 4]
[G]depre[B]ssin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Workin' at the [D]car wash [G]blues
[D]You kno[G]w a man

[Verse 5]
[C]of my ability
He should be smokin' on a [G]big cigar
But 'til I [C]get myself straight I
guess I'll just have to wait
In my rub[A]ber suit rubbin'
these cars
[D][Dm]

[Verse 6]
[D]
Well, [G]all I can do is to shake my head
You [D]might not believe that it's true
[A]For wor[D]kin' at this end of [A]Nia[D]gara Falls
Is an undis[G]covered Howard Hughes
So [D]baby, don't [G]expect to see me
With no double martini in any [C]high
brow [A]society news

[Verse 7]
'Cause I got them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Workin' at the [D]car wash

[Interlude 1]
blues
[G][D][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 8]
So baby, don't [G]expect to see me
With no double martini in any [C]high

[Verse 9]
'Cause I got them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down mind [G]messin'
[C]Workin' at the [D]car wash [G]blues
