Keep Your Day Job

Music By Jerry Garcia
Words By Robert Hunter

Maybe you collect or maybe you pay
Still got to work that eight hour day
Whether you like that job or not
You'd better keep it on ice while you're lining up your long shot
Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job
Don't give it away
Keep your day job
Whatever they say
Keep your day job
Till your night job pays

Ring that bell for whatever it's worth
Sunday comes forget about work
By now you know that the face on your dollar
Got a thumb on its nose and a hand on your collar
Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job
Don't give it away
Keep your day job
Whatever they say
Keep your day job
Till your night job pays

Sunday comes forget about work
Ring that bell for whatever it's worth
If you ask me like I know you won't
I'll tell you what to do what I know that you won't
Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job
Don't give it away
Keep your day job
Whatever they say
Keep your day job
Till your night job pays
