Workin' for MCA

[Verse 1] Seven years of hard luck, coming down on me From the Florida border, yea up to Nashville Tennessee I worked in every joint you can name, mister every honkytonk Along come Mr Yankee Slicker, saying maybe you're what I want [Chorus] Want you to sign your contract Want you to sign today Gonna give you lots of money Workin' For MCA [Verse 2] 9000 dollars, that's all we could win But we smiled at the Yankee Slicker with a big ol' Southern grin They're gonna take me out to California gonna make me a superstar Just pay me all of my money and mister maybe you won't get a scar [Chorus] [Verse 3] Suckers took my money since I was seventeen If it ain't no pencil pusher, it got to be a honkytonk queen But I'll sign my contract baby, and I wan't you people to know That every penny that I make, I'm gonna see where my money goes [Chorus]
