G
Well a funny thing happened at a gig the other day
C
When a man approached me with a resume’
G                                             D
And said 'if you need any help, then I’m your man.'
C
He said, 'I’ll work the door, I’ll load your gear
G
if you boys Get thirsty, I’ll go for beer,
G                                 D               G
and if it ever breaks down, I can Even fix your van'


When I asked the guy what he did for work
I saw a twinkle in his eye and he gave a little smirk
he said, 'I work right down the Road, I’ve got a melon stand.
Set up in a shady spot, I sell watermelon and a little good pot,
And last year I made *** near thirty grand.'

He said, 'I need a change and I love your sound,
I sure Would like to get out of this town
and dedicate my life to a Rock and roll band.
I’ve been a race car mechanic and a body guard,
I’m a CPA and I work real hard.
Come on and hire me on, I can see you boys need a hand.'

'You know I’ve done it all and been around
Had a lot of good jobs, seen a lot of rough towns.
I’d like to offer you my services for hire.
I was a cook in the army and I drove a jeep,
I had an Eighty acre ranch where I ran some sheep,
I sang bass in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.'

Chorus:

C                                  G
He’s a resume’ man, he’s a resume’ man.
G                                   D
If he can’t do it, I don’t know who can
C                               G
It says right here, he’s qualified
G                              D                   G
Fifty years on the job but the man is only forty-five.



But things started getting a little weird
When he stared at Mike and took a swig of beer,
And said, 'What’s with the lady, she really blows my
mind.'
Well I know the man was qualified, he’d worked a
hundred Different jobs, done them all with pride but
he wasn’t exactly the Help we’d hope to find.

Chorus
