It's great to be home
ย
Oh, seven years of hard luck comin' down on me
From the Florida border yeah, it's up to Nashville Tennessee
I worked in every joint you can name mister, every honky tonk
Along come Mr. Yankee Slicker, said, "Maybe you're what I want"
Want you to sign a contract
Want you to sign today
Gonna give you lots of money
Workin' for MCA
ย
Yeah, nine thousand dollars, that's all we could win
But we smiled at the Yankee Slicker with a big ol' Southern grin
They're gonna take me out to California, gonna make me a superstar
Just pay me all of my money mister, maybe you won't get a scar
Want you to sign your contract
Want you to sign today
Gonna give you lots of money
Workin' for MCA, hey
ย
Ohh, slickers steal my money since I was 17
If it ain't no pencil pusher then it got to be a honkytonk queen
But I'll sign my contract baby and I won't you people to know
That every penny that I make, I've gotta see where my money goes
Want you to sign a contract
Want you to sign today
Gonna give you lots of money
Workin' for MCA
ย
(Ohh yeah)
(Yeah, baby)
