Well I was sittin` up in my crane leftin` boulders in the rain
Can`t get promoted no matter what I do
Ah when the forman he comes around and he yells up from the ground
He says hold that load up there for a minute or two
Cause I got to check some gear down here below
So whatever you do with them rocks just don`t let go
Just don`t let go just don`t let go
Sittin` by his desk drinkin` coffee it seems that he got hit by a rock or three
They`re puttin` my name on the door where his name was before
Oh dirty ol` me say dirty ol` me
Now my best friend had confessed that his life had been a mess
Yeah when he was young he robbed the bank and then ran
But now he lives an honest life and he`s got a lovely wife
But still it hurts to be a wanted man
But he said nobody knows about it but my friends and kin
And I know a none of them would ever turn me in
They`d never turn me in they`d never turn me in
I`m slouchin` on his couch drinkin` his whiskey
Well it seems somebody called the police on he
And between the hugs and kisses that I`m gettin` from his Mrs
I think oh dirty ol` me dirty ol` me
And then of course it follows I found a suitcase full of dollars
About fifteen thousand of `em more or less
And inside there was a note that some poor old lady wrote
Givin` me her name and her address
And it said if lost finder please return without hesitation
Cause I`ve been savin` this money for fifteen years
Strippin` and sufferin` and takin` in washin`
Scrubbin` floors and sellin` flowers in the snow
And now I need it for a serious operation a serious operation a serious operation
Now I`m layin` on the beach in Acapulco got enough money to last till I`m ninety-three
And I`m eatin` enchilidas served by lovely signoritas
Thinkin` oh dirty ol` me thinkin` dirty ol` me
(Yeah I can`t face myself aw y`know but when you really think about it
I mean that foreman I mean he had compensation and prob`ly could use the rest
And y`know my friend`ll prob`ly feel a lot better
When he pays his debt to society and won`t have that pressure on him
Y`know and that old lady y`know if there was such an old lady
It prob`ly was a false note anyway
But if there was she she can get MediCare they`ve got
I mean I`m not tryin` to make excuses or nothin` y`know I mean
I mean I can`t stand to look at myself sometimes I mean
I-I feel the guilt honey pass me some more of that tequila
I `m just tryin` to forget dirty ol` me
Yeah just move a little closer yeah
Some o`them frijoles I love frijoles yeah I want
Yeah I-I got the money right here yeah) Send " Dirty Ol Me" Ringtone to your Cell
