    Verse 1
    In 
    the middle 
    of late 
    last 
    night 
    was 
    sittin' 
    on 
    curb 

    didn't 
    know 
    what 
    about 
    but 

    was 
    feeling 
    quite 
    disturbed 

    A street 
    sweeper 
    came 
    whistlin' 
    by 

    He 
    was 
    bouncin' 
    every 
    step 

    It seemed 
    strange 
    how 
    good 
    he 
    felt 

    So 
    asked 
    him 
    while 
    he 
    swept 

    Verse 2
    He said 
    "It's 
    my job 
    to 

    be clean
    ing 
    up 
    this 
    mess 

    And 
    that's 
    enough 
    reas

    on 
    to go 
    for 
    me 

    It's my 
    job 
    to 
    be 
    bet

    ter 
    than 
    the 
    rest 

    And 
    that 
    makes 
    the day 
    for 
    me" 

    Verse 3

    Got 
    an 
    uncle 
    who 
    own
    a bank 

    he's 
    a self 
    made 
    millionaire 

    He 
    never 
    had 
    any
    one 
    to love 

    never 
    had 
    no 
    one 
    to 
    care 

    He 
    always 
    to seemed 
    kind 
    of sad 
    to me 

    So 
    asked 
    him 
    why 
    that 
    was 

    And 
    he told 
    me 
    it's 
    be
    cause 
    in my 

    con
    tract 
    there's 
    clause 

    That 
    says 
    "It's 
    my job 
    to 

    wor
    ried 
    half 
    to death 

    And 
    that's 
    the thing 
    people 

    respect 
    in 
    me 

    It's 
    job 
    but 
    without 
    it 
    I'd 
    be 
    less 

    Than 
    what 
    ex
    pect 
    from 
    me" 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    I've 
    been lazy 
    most 
    all 
    of 
    my 
    life 

    Writing 
    songs 
    and sleeping 
    late 

    Any 
    manual 
    labor 
    I've 

    done 
    purely 
    by 
    mistake 

    If street 
    sweepers 
    can smile 
    then 

    I've 
    got 
    no 
    right 
    to 
    feel 
    up
    set 

    But 
    some
    times 
    still 
    forget 

    Till 
    the light
    go 
    on 

    and 
    the stage 
    is 
    set 

    And 
    the song 
    hits 
    home 

    and 
    you 
    feel 
    that 
    sweat 

    It's 
    my 
    job 
    Verse 5
    to 
    be 
    dif
    ferent 
    than 
    the 
    rest 

    and 
    that's 
    enough 
    reas
    on 

    to 
    go 
    for 
    me 

    It's my 
    job 
    to 
    be bet

    ter 
    than 
    the 
    best 

    and 
    that's 
    tough 
    break 
    for 
    me 

    It's my 
    job 
    to 
    be clean

    ing 
    up 
    this 
    mess 

    and 
    that's 
    enough 
    reas
    on 
    to go 
    for 
    me 

    Verse 6
    It's 
    my 
    job 
    to be 
    bet
    ter 
    than 
    the 
    best 

    and 
    that 
    makes 
    the day 
    for 

    Outro 1

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
