Drum rolls hot when the super's gone
Poker chips, twenties and government bonds
I ran the rat race
But I never won
Get down on my knee when the laundry's done
Get down on my knee
Get down on me knee
My baby needs a ring and man she needs it soon
And I never saved a dollar leaning on my broom
But I clean up nice
Plastic thunder and the paper rains
Cotton-press steady on the weather vane
A little weather for the wear
A little weather for the tear
Watch that little window from your folding chair
Watch that little window
Watch that little window
She needs a wedding ring before the baby shows
Been buying time with sleight of hand & baggy clothes
But I clean up nice
Linen sheets and pocket folds
I think about Sing Sing and the big pay load
A brand new chip off this broke old block
My blue-eyed baby with a borrowed rock
But I clean up nice
