Dirty Work

Steely Dan Steely Dan

Times are hard, you're afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody who can do the job for free
When you need a bit of lovin' 'cause your man is out of town,
That's the time to get me runnin', and you know I'll be around

I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah,
I don't wanna do your dirty work no more,
I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah

Light the candle, put the lock upon the door
You have sent the maid home early like a thousand times before
Like the castle in his corner in a medieval game,
I foresee terrible trouble, and I stay here just the same

I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah
I don't wanna do your dirty work no more
I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah
