Everyday I get so confused,
Now I'm just shouting for the rhythm and blues.
I keep forgetting where I'm coming from,
And I don't think my life's gonna last me long.

But I appreciate the job, don't wanna, wanna go and fall.
Well I appreciate the job,
And that's all, and that's all.

Today looks sunny but it's raining outside,
I can't fix the music that is going high.
You'll find me down the local bar,
And I don't think my money's gonna take me far.

But I appreciate the job, don't wanna, wanna go and fall.
Well I appreciate the job,
And that's all, and that's all.

(Instrumental)

But I appreciate the job, don't wanna, wanna go and fall.
Well I appreciate the job,
And that's all, and that's all.

I could try working on a railroad track,
But I don't think my mama's gonna take me back.
I'm living on a decent wage,
And I wanna keep playing on a rock 'n' roll stage.

But I appreciate the job, don't wanna, wanna go and fall.
Well I appreciate the job,
And that's all, and that's all.
