Boss man called me in again, he had some things to say: 
E                               A7 
Change your attitude or this is it. 
        D                                 A   A/Ab   F#m 
I said 'Yeah boss, I been thinking you're absolutely right. 
B7                              E7 
You ain't firing me, cos I just quit.' 
 
 
            A             B7 
I'm workin' overtime on a good time, 
  D           E                  A   E 
A man's gotta do what he's gotta do. 
             A            
I might take all night long, 
         B7 
But I'll get the job done, 
      D                             E

Now we've all got a talent, and I've discovered mine.

And I ain't gonna let it go to waste. 
    D                                     A     A/Ab    F#m 
The smoke and lights don't bother me, the hours suit me fine, 
       B7                            E  
It's a dirty job, but once I get the taste:

But I'll get the job done, 
      D                             E
