Hall (mhall@moe.coe.uga.edu) Peanut Butter Conspiracy 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) www.TAB6.com
