B               A        E
Seven years of hard luck,
coming down on me
From the Florida border, yes up
to Nashville Tennessee

I worked in every joint you can name,
mister every honky tonk
Along come Mr. Yankee Slicker, saying
maybe you're what I want

Chorus:
F#
Want you to sign your contract
Want you to sign today
Gonna give you lots of money
              E
Workin' For MCA

9000 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 my money, mister,
maybe you won't get a scar

Chorus

Oh suckers took my money
since I was seventeen
If it ain't no pencil pusher,
then it got to be a honky tonk queen

But I'll sign my contract baby,
and I want you people to know
That every penny that I make,
I'm gonna see where my money goes
