@SONG: Peanut Butter Conspiracy
@CHORDS: Mike A. Hall ([email protected])
By: Jimmy Buffett
1973
C G Looking back at my hard luck days F C I really do have to laugh C G Working in a dive for twenty six dollars F G Spending it all on grass F C We were hungry hard luck heros F G Trying just to stay alive F C We'd go down to the corner drug D G This is how we'd survive
Chorus:
C Who's going to steal the peanut butter? F C I'll get a can of sardines C Running up and down the aisle of the mini mart F G Sticking food in our jeans F C We never took more than we could eat F G There was plenty left on the rack F C We all swore if we ever got rich G C We would pay the mini mart back F C F C Yes sir! Yes sir! G C We would pay the mini mart back
It was a two man operation
Had it all down on a note
Ricky would watch that big round mirror
And I'd fill up my coat
Then we'd head for the checkout aisle
With a lemon and a bottle of beer
Into to the car, got to make it on home
Supper time's gettin' near
(Repeat chorus)
I guess every good picker has had some hard times
I sure had my share
It's really kind of funny to laugh at it now
But I don't want to go back there
So every now and then when I'm in the grocery
I take a little but not much
You never know when those hard times will hit you
And I don't want to lose my touch
(Repeat chorus)
