Lyrics George Thorogood

George Thorogood

Get A Haircut

I was a rebel from the day I left school

grew my hair long and broke all the rules

I'd sit and listen to my records all day

with big ambitions of where I could play

My parents taught me what life was about

so I grew up the type they warned me about

They said my friends were just an unruly mob

and I should get a haircut and get a real job

Get a haircut and get a real job

Clean your act up and don't be a slob

Get it together like your big brother Bob

Why don't you get a haircut and get a real job?

I even tried that 9 to 5 scene

I told myself that it was all a bad dream

I found a band and some good songs to play

and now I party all night, I sleep all day

I met this chick she was my number one fan

She took me home to meet her mommy and dad

They took one look at me and said "Oh my God!"

Get a haircut and get a real job

Get a real job

Get a real job

Why don't you get a real job?

Get a real job

I hit the big time with my rock 'n' roll band

The future's brighter now than I'd ever planned

I'm ten times richer than my big brother Bob

but he, he's got a haircut he's got a real job

Get a real job

Get a real job

Why don't you get a real job?

Get a real job

Why don't you get a real job?
