Looking For The Time (Workin' Girl) - Nanci Griffith
Well, I work this corner from eleven to five The hands get cold around midnight You're askin' me if I've got the time... Well I don't know But you're wastin' mine tonight [Chorus:] Whoa... You say you're looking for the time Well, I'm a workin' girl... You just wasted mine If you ain't got money... Take it down the avenue 'cuz I ain't got time for you... Until daylight This sidewalk ice is cold as steel... I'm not Dorothy... I can't click my heels One of these days I'll move to L. A. Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play [Chorus:] Don't the snow light up the midnight sky The snow plows roll and the limos fly Don't cha know it's just another night Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine Oh, I wish you had the money and I had the time 'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by [Chorus 2x]
