[Verse 1]
[D]In [G]the[Em][G][A][D][G][A][D]
[G]middle of lat[D]e last night,
I'm [C]sitting on [Em]a curb[C]
[G]Didn't know what about,
[D]something had[C] me quite dis[Em] tur[C]bed[A]
[Em]A street sweeper
comes [D]whistling by
Boun[C]cing every [G]step[A]
[Bbdim]Seems strange h[Bm]ow good he felt
[E]So I asked [Em]him w[G]hile he swept
He said, it's my [D]job
[A]To be [Em]cleaning up this mess
[G]And that's the best rea[Bm]son to go [A]for me
It's my [D]job
[A]To be [Em]better than the [G]rest and
that [D]makes [A]the day for [D]me
[G]Got an unc[C]le tha[D]t owns a bank.
He's [C]a self -made millionaire
[G]Never had anyone [D]to thank,
never [C]had no [Em]one to [C]care[A]
[Em]He always seemed kind of s[D]ad to me,
so I [C]asked him [Em]why that [A]was
[C]An d he [Bm]told me it's because
In [E]my con[Em]tract,
[D]there's [G]a clause t[Em]hat says it's my j[D]ob
[A]to be wor[Em]ried half to [G]death and that's
the [Bm]thing people re[A]spect in me.
It's my [D]job, and without [Em]it I'[G]d be less
than [D]what I [A]expect to [D]be.[G][Em][G][A][D]
[G]Well, I've been [Bm]lazy [D]most all my life
Singing [C]songs in sleep and late
[G]Any manual lab[D]or I've
done is [C]purely by mistake
[A]If [Em]street sweepers can s[D]mile
And I got [C]no right to [Em]feel [A]upset
[C]But sometimes [Bsus4]I still f[Bm]orget
[E]Till the lights [G]come [D]on
and the [G]stage is set
And the song hits [D]home and
you [G]feel [Em]that [A]sweat
It's my [D]job to be [Em]different from [G]the rest
And that's the best [Bm]reason to [A]go for me
It's my [D]job to be [G]better than the rest
And [D]that's a [A]tough break for me
[D]It's my job [A]to be [G]cleaning up this mess,
an[Bm]d that's the best reason to [A]go for me.
It's my [D]job to [G]be different [Em]from the [G]rest,
and [D]that makes [A]the day for [D]me.
Thank you.
Thanks a lot.
