The Silhouettes, "Get a Job"
Misheard Lyrics:
Oh, when I get newspaper, I read it through and through.
And my girl at the Belson's said if there is any work for me
I better go back to the house, I hear the mama's mouth
Reachin' at a crime, tell me that I'm not without a job
Original Lyrics:
Oh, when I get the paper, I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to see if there is any work for me
I'd better go back to the house, I hear my woman's mouth
Reachin' and a-cryin', tell me that I'm not without a job
