G
Well a funny thing happened at a gig the other day
C
When a man approached me with a resume�
G D
And said 'if you need any help, then I�m your man.'
C
He said, 'I�ll work the door, I�ll load your gear
G
if you boys Get thirsty, I�ll go for beer,
G D G
and if it ever breaks down, I can Even fix your van'
When I asked the guy what he did for work
I saw a twinkle in his eye and he gave a little smirk
he said, 'I work right down the Road, I�ve got a melon stand.
Set up in a shady spot, I sell watermelon and a little good pot,
And last year I made *** near thirty grand.'
He said, 'I need a change and I love your sound,
I sure Would like to get out of this town
and dedicate my life to a Rock and roll band.
I�ve been a race car mechanic and a body guard,
I�m a CPA and I work real hard.
Come on and hire me on, I can see you boys need a hand.'
'You know I�ve done it all and been around
Had a lot of good jobs, seen a lot of rough towns.
I�d like to offer you my services for hire.
I was a cook in the army and I drove a jeep,
I had an Eighty acre ranch where I ran some sheep,
I sang bass in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.'
Chorus:
C G
He�s a resume� man, he�s a resume� man.
G D
If he can�t do it, I don�t know who can
C G
It says right here, he�s qualified
G D G
Fifty years on the job but the man is only forty-five.
But things started getting a little weird
When he stared at Mike and took a swig of beer,
And said, 'What�s with the lady, she really blows my
mind.'
Well I know the man was qualified, he�d worked a
hundred Different jobs, done them all with pride but
he wasn�t exactly the Help we�d hope to find.
Chorus
