Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thirteen days on a gig in the south
We're got enough dope to keep us all around
We got two girls dancin' to pick up the crowd
A sound man to mix us, make us sound loud
Sometimes we make money
Sometimes I don't know
There's thirteen days with five to go
[Verse 2]
Birmingham, Mobile, and up to Baton Rogue
We're smokin' cigarettes and reefer, drinkin' coffee, and booze
See the sun come up in Georgia
Go down in New Orleans
Never get to know a woman
Decide to get in her jeans
Sometimes we make money
Sometimes I don't know
Thirteen days with five to go
[Verse 3]
Migrant Worker, is the name of this band
When we come to your town
Come see us if you can
Well, we've been to California
We've been to New York
Some take it real good
Others take dope
Sometimes we make money
Sometimes I don't know
There's thirteen days with five to go
[Verse 4]
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na
