It's Just Work for Me |
| Well I got my old bulldozer |
| Got my dozer-hauling truck |
| And I got my demolition order |
| Got to be out there by sunup |
| So I head west on Arroyo |
| Right turn at Bishop Road |
| Pull up by the schoolhouse and |
| Jack down my dozer load |
| What I’d see? |
| Dirt roads, beat up shacks |
| Stretched out as far as I can see |
| Don’t throw that brick my way, buddy |
| 'Cause it’s just work: it's just work for me |
| Now they called out all the police |
| Police dragged some old lady |
| Right downstairs, hollering |
| «Move your ass, all you taco benders |
| We’re gonna protect and serve you right on away from here.» |
| It ain’t none of my business |
| And it ain’t my master plan |
| You got to go where they send you |
| When you’re a dozer-drivin' man |
| I see dirt roads, beat up shacks |
| Stretched out far as I can see |
| Don’t walk down on me like that, buddy! |
| I’m telling you, it’s only work: it's just work for me |
| Now this old truck is getting tired |
| This old bank account is getting low |
| Don’t even own our old house-trailer in Fontana |
| So I gotta do this work, you know |
| Some of you may like baseball |
| Well I guess baseball’s alright with me |
| Someday there’ll be a big old ballpark here |
| Where your little old town used to be |
| Dirt roads, country shacks |
| Old dogs, and dry grass, dusty trees |
| This ain’t your world, tell ya, buddy |
| Sure ain’t my world |
| Just a job, a work: just work for me |
| Ni el mio tampoco |
| Solo un trabajo… trabajo para mi |
