Lyrics

[00:03.55] Air Supply
[00:06.65] Ain't It A Shame
[00:09.22]
[00:29.61] Hit with the bug to run,
[00:31.58] you didn't go to college we can use you son
[00:33.89] You look like the pride of your home town
[00:36.17] But how can you hold out when your luck is down
[00:39.17] Ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame,
[00:41.98] ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame.
[00:48.34]
[00:48.76] Because I'm too tired to run around
[00:51.80] Meeting people from the wrong side of town
[00:54.74] Looking for a place to live, I've got no money,
[00:57.30] nothing to give, listen
[00:58.53]
[00:58.85] All you gotta do is look around
[01:01.78] for something that's new
[01:03.11] Find a job that's stimulating,
[01:05.73] that's easy and I'm still waiting
[01:08.29] Ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame,
[01:12.80] ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame.
[01:16.77]
[01:27.73] I've stood in the line and done my time
[01:29.81] With nothin' to do all day
[01:31.89] I've stood in the line with all my friends
[01:34.43] With nothin' to say all day,
[01:39.48] I've stood in the line and done my time
[01:41.42] With nothin' to do all day
[01:43.66] I've stood in the line with all my friends
[01:46.06] With nothin' to say all day, nothin' to say all day.
[01:50.99]
[02:01.68] Got brains but got no drive
[02:03.56] Money's cheap, the roads are wide
[02:06.09] All the good positions go too fast
[02:08.22] I need a job I know will last
[02:11.18] I've got a job for you, can you push a shovel can you swing that broom
[02:15.28] Keep your head down and don't go slow
[02:17.66] But don't forget to stop with the whistle.
[02:18.85]
[02:19.36] Ain't it a shame.
[02:21.60] Ain't it a shame.
[02:23.98] Ain't it a shame.
[02:26.94] Ain't it a shame.
