Looking back at my hard luck days
F CI really do have to laugh
C GWorking in a dive for twenty six dollars
Spending it all on grass
We were hungry hard luck heros
F GTrying just to stay alive
F CWe'd go down to the corner drug
This is how we'd survive
Who's going to steal the peanut butter?
I'll get a can of sardines
CRunning up and down the aisle of the mini mart
F GSticking food in our jeans
We never took more than we could eat
F GThere was plenty left on the rack
F CWe all swore if we ever got rich
We would pay the mini mart back
F C F CYes sir! Yes sir!
G CWe would pay the mini mart back
It was a two man operation
Had it all down on a note
Ricky would watch that big round mirror
And I'd fill up my coat
Then we'd head for the checkout aisle
With a lemon and a bottle of beer
Into to the car, got to make it on home
Supper time's gettin' near
(Repeat chorus)
I guess every good picker has had some hard times
I sure had my share
It's really kind of funny to laugh at it now
But I don't want to go back there
So every now and then when I'm in the grocery
I take a little but not much
You never know when those hard times will hit you
And I don't want to lose my touch
(Repeat chorus)
