《Odd Job Man》歌词

[00:00:01] Odd Job Man - Harry Chapin
[00:00:08] I give part time help
[00:00:10] I'm the odd job man
[00:00:12] I can't do what I want
[00:00:14] So I do what I can
[00:00:16] And I'll tell you now
[00:00:18] So that you will understand
[00:00:21] You get just what you pay for from the odd job man
[00:00:35] One day this dude drives in the station
[00:00:37] And I slide out to the pump
[00:00:40] And he says " I need some odd jobs done
[00:00:42] Can you get off from this dump "
[00:00:44] Well I can always use some extra bread
[00:00:46] So I nod and take the job
[00:00:49] When he says " Clean up before you come
[00:00:51] I do not hire slobs "
[00:00:54] Now you can see I'm not no fancy pants
[00:00:56] But everyone has pride
[00:00:58] And especially since this lovely lady's
[00:01:00] Sittin' by his side
[00:01:03] Still something keeps my trap shut
[00:01:05] And I nod again " Alright "
[00:01:08] And he gooses his Mercedes
[00:01:10] And he squeals off in the night
[00:01:14] I give part time help
[00:01:16] I'm the odd job man
[00:01:19] I can't do what I want
[00:01:21] So I do what I can
[00:01:24] And I'll tell you now
[00:01:26] So that you will understand
[00:01:28] You get just what you pay for from the odd job man
[00:01:36] Well I find his place next morning
[00:01:38] It's more a palace than a pad
[00:01:41] And it kind of makes my pick-up truck
[00:01:43] Start looking pretty bad
[00:01:45] But the same lady swings the door back
[00:01:48] And before one word is said
[00:01:50] She leads me to his trophy room
[00:01:52] Where he sits with his stuffed heads
[00:01:55] He's got this list of jobs for me to do
[00:01:58] While he's out of town
[00:01:59] And he says "I'm too damn busy boy
[00:02:03] The way I move around"
[00:02:03] Well I start to figure prices when he says
[00:02:07] "It's time you learned
[00:02:09] When you're dealing with a gentleman
[00:02:11] You get just what you earn"
[00:02:16] I give part time help
[00:02:18] I'm the odd job man
[00:02:21] I can't do what I want
[00:02:23] So I do what I can
[00:02:25] And I'll tell you now
[00:02:27] So that you will understand
[00:02:30] You get just what you pay for from the odd job man
[00:02:55] I set to work that weekend
[00:02:57] And I'm fixin' up some stairs
[00:03:00] When I feel that someone's watching me
[00:03:01] And I see SHE'S standing there
[00:03:04] And she says "I like to watch you work
[00:03:07] You have such supple hands"
[00:03:09] She says "Can I help you " and I say
[00:03:13] "Baby you CAN "
[00:03:15] Well she looks me in the eyes boys
[00:03:17] I admit I looked a little lower
[00:03:19] That's when she starts breathing faster
[00:03:21] And I start working slower
[00:03:23] You see when you have a helper
[00:03:25] With her attitude and grace
[00:03:29] You start puttin' lots of extra hours
[00:03:32] Workin' 'round the place
[00:03:35] I give part time help
[00:03:37] I'm the odd job man
[00:03:39] I can't do what I want
[00:03:42] So I do what I can
[00:03:52] Well a month had too soon come and gone
[00:03:54] With my odd jobs all done
[00:03:57] When who should pull up to the pump
[00:03:58] But the long-lost prodigal son
[00:04:03] And he says "Here's a hundred dollars boy"
[00:04:06] Pulls the bill off from his wad
[00:04:08] And he starts to hand it over
[00:04:10] Like a gift come straight from God
[00:04:13] I say "That's just a buck an hour sir "
[00:04:16] He says "That's what I pay for jerks"
[00:04:20] Now I admit that almost blew my cool
[00:04:21] But I staggered back to work
[00:04:25] You see most times when it's said and done
[00:04:27] There's justice to this life
[00:04:30] 'Cause what that man had done to me
[00:04:32] I'd done to his wife
[00:04:36] I give part time help
[00:04:39] I'm the odd job man
[00:04:43] I can't do what I want
[00:04:45] So I do what I can
[00:04:48] And I'll tell you now
[00:04:51] So that you will understand
[00:04:54] You get just what you pay for from the odd job man
