"Rooster's Blues" lyrics

It's a dirty job
But don't make me do it
Your gonna get rock
Somebody gotta do it

Nothing makes you feel but it tries
Stay up all night, huh, try to get high
A dirty job
Your gonna bite the bullet
Your gonna get rock
And rub your nose in it

Love that dirty job
Take it to the bank
I'll turn you upside down
And shake yah by your ankles
It's a dirty job
But don't make me do it
Your gonna get rock
They put me up to it

Need no needle, but I crave the spoon
A country boy, reaching for the moon

Cook knows a cook
You put it on a table
Put a hole it out
Why you still labeled
As a dirty job
You're gonna bite the bullet
You're gonna get rock
Rub your nose in it

Don't know the words, I can sing the tune
Country boy, reaching for the moon
Stones in my pathsway, hounds on my trail
Don't like the way that she done me
Right in these graves

It's a dirty job
But don't make me do it
Your gonna get rock
You put me up to it

It's a dirty job
You gonna bite the bullet
You don't get rock
And rub your nose in it

It's a dirty job
It's a dirty job
It's a dirty job
