I Just Can't Get It Right Today

I Just Can't Get It Right Today

I went down to the office, tried to find me a job
everything was closed up, and I end up getting robbed
I saw a yellow letter stuck up in a tree
Don't you know that it was addressed to me

I just can't get it right today
You know I just can't get it right today
You know I just can't seem... to get it right today

lead break

I threw a big rock, right up into that tree
It just came back down, and hit a red Capri
I glanced at my watch
and it was it was a quarter to 4
I was late for my baby, and she wouldn't be waiting no more

Chorus

--------------------Lead-------------------

break:

you know I just can't get it right today
No matter how I try, no matter which way
Bad luck and trouble found me alone
I'm going back to stay right at home
lead break

I hopped on the bus, it was waiting just for me
I gave the man a dollar, he just glared at me
"Bus fare's a dollar fifty, I can't wait all day
Come up with the change or Buddy I'm on my way"

Chorus

you know I just can't get it right today
No matter how I try, no matter which way
Bad luck and trouble found me alone
I'm going back to stay right at home

Chorus
