Company Time - Linda Davis

(Mac McAnally)

Ruthie got a job 
And nothing went right 
She woke up in a nervous sweat 
In the middle of the night 
And every morning 
Of every day 
Ruthie she would end up crying, Lord 
And the boss would come and say 

Hey if you’re gonna lose your mind 
Don’t do it on company time 
Aw girl you’re gonna lose some pay 
If you wanna behave that way 
On company time 
Ruthie’s got a kid 
And he just turned two 
Late last year his daddy walked out 
Said "Now it’s all up to you" 
The sitter called 
Has to leave pretty soon 
Ruthie asked her boss would it be alright 
To go home this afternoon 

Hey if you’re always in a bind 
Don’t do it on company time 
Aw girl you’re gonna lose some pay 
If you wanna behave that way 
On company time 
Now Ruthie’s upstairs 
On the seventh floor 
Executive Assistant to the Chairman of the Board 
And every morning on the speakerphone 
The Chairman says "Ruthie you’re driving me crazy 
Can we be alone"

Hey if you wanna lose your mind 
Let’s do it on company time 
Aw girl we’re gonna raise your pay 
If you wanna behave that way 
On company time, on company time 
On company time, on company time
