Keepin` Up With The Joneses Lyrics

Keepin` Up With The Joneses lyrics

Paul Barrere and Lowell George 



Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

Go on and hang that man who says the best things in life are for free 

Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

She's just one more bad habit I was too blind to see 



The lady and I was happy at first 

Just livin' from day to day 

Off the wall came the call said we're destined to fall 

If I don't bring home more pay 



Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

Go on and hang that man who says the best things in life are for free 

Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

She's just one more bad habit I was too blind to see 



She spent all my money just like it was spare change 

I wonder what I'll lose first my life or my mind 

Don't know the doors from the windows 

Shee keeps me amused, damaged, and abused 



And she said "Small change don't make no sense 

and your words are worthless too 

And ya best bring home more bacon, darlin', 

or you and me is through" 



Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

Go on and hang that man who says the best things in life are for free 

Keepin' up with the Joneses is killing me 

She's just one more bad habit I was too blind to see
