Biografía:
Robert Earl Keen, Jr. (born January 11, 1956 in Houston, Texas) is an American singer-songwriter. Growing up, Keen was interested in music, sports, movies and writing. He attended Texas A&M University, enrolling in the school of journalism. Disappointed in the College Station, Texas music scene, he began playing guitar and learned to read and write music, basing his style on folk, country, blues and roots rock.

[Intro]
A D(add9) A D(add9)
A D(add9) E
You take off from work a bit early,
A D(add9) E
The boss doesn't care if you stay.
A D(add9) E A
The guard with the key has to check your ID,
D(add9) E A
But he'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
The cops have stopped ten miles of traffic,
A D(add9) E
They're sorry for all the delay.
A D(add9) E A
No need for alarm as they're waving their arms,
D(add9) E A
But they'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
Two pretty blondes in a Porsche,
A D(add9) E
Their bumper says 'We Love L.A.'
A D(add9) E A
They look pretty fair but they're crazy out there,
D(add9) E A
They'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
You got in some trouble in high school,
A D(add9) E
But you feel like a new man today.
A D(add9) E A
You keep to yourself because anyone else.
D(add9) E A
Would just as soon blow you away.
[Instrumental]
A D(add9) A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A
A D(add9) E
You're standin' in front of the teller,
A D(add9) E
She's countin' out all of your pay.
A D(add9) E A
There's twenties and ones and there's guards with their guns,
D(add9) E A
And they'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
And one old ex-con at the station,
A D(add9) E
Fixes flats in the back of the bay.
A D(add9) E A
He winks and he jokes and he borrows a smoke,
D(add9) E A
But he'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
You like the new girl at the hotel,
A D(add9) E
She drops your room key in the tray.
A D(add9) E A
No words will pass through the bullet-proof glass,
D(add9) E A
'Cause she'd just as soon blow you away.
[Instrumental]
A D(add9) A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A
A D(add9) E
You climb up the stairs every evening,
A D(add9) E
To your room right above the cafe.
A D(add9) E A
There ain't much mystique but you pay every week,
D(add9) E A
Cause they'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) E
And you turn out the light that you read by,
A D(add9) E
You pray that you're one of the few.
A D(add9) E A
When you're in with the Lord there's just one reward,
D(add9) E A
And they'd just as soon make it come true.
[Instrumental]
A D(add9) A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A D(add9) E A
A D(add9) E
The mattress is mildewed and lumpy,
A D(add9) E
But you fall fast asleep where you lay.
A D(add9) E A
Under the lump there's a twenty gauge pump,
D(add9) E A
Cause they'd just as soon blow you away.
A D(add9) A D(add9)
A D(add9) E
You take off from work a bit early,
A D(add9) E
