Every guy I know trying to get ahead
Working two jobs till you’re almost dead (you tell ‘em)
Work your fingers right down to the bone
There’s a cat named Jody sneaking around in your home
There’s a cat named Jody in every town
Spending lots of cash and just riding around
Ride on Jody, ride on ride on, with your bad self
Jody leaves ashes in your ash tray
Footprints on your carpet while you work all day
He even got the nerve to sleep in your bed
Sit down at the table, eat your bread
When you get home after working hard all day
Jody’s got your girl and he’s gone away
Chorus
I say now ain’t no sense in going home
Jody got your gal and gone
Gotta get home but you work too hard
You gotta get home but you work too hard
Chorus
When you discover your gross neglect
It’ll be too late to give your woman respect
You’ll hunt down Jody, dead or alive
$10,000 reward for Jody’s hide
Chorus
The reason I know
One day Jody took my gal, said he took her away
He had enough sense to express himself
He told her good she look
Told her how cute she walk
Told her how pretty she talk
Ain’t no sense in you going home
Cause Jody has everything you got
work all day! There's a $10,000 reward for Jody's hide.
Good music!!
