Biografia:
James Joseph Croce (Philadelphia, 10 de janeiro de 1943 – 20 de setembro de 1973), popularmente conhecido como Jim Croce, foi um compositor e cantor estadunidense.
Começou sua carreira profissional tocando em bandas, quando era um estudante na universidade de Villanova, em 1964.

Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
G
Well, I had just got out from the county prison
D7
Doin' ninety days for non-support
Tried to find me an executive position
G
But no matter how smooth I talked
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius
C7 A
The man say, "We got all that we can use."
G B7 Em G
Now I got them steadily depressin', low down mind messin'
C7 D7 G
workin' at the car wash blues
G
Well, I should be sittin' in an air conditioned office
D7
In a swivel chair
Talkin' some trash to the secretaries
G
Sayin', "Here, now mam-ma, come on over here."
Instead, I'm stuck here rubbin' these fenders with a rag
C7 A
And walkin' home in soggy old shoes
G B7 Em G
With them steadily depressin', low down mind messin'
C7 D7 G
workin' at the car wash blues
C C7 G
You know a man of my ability he should be smokin' on a big cigar
C C7
But till I get myself straight I guess I'll just have to wait
A D7
In my rubber suit a-rubbin' these cars
G
Well, all I can do is a shake my head
D7
You might not believe that it's true
For workin' at this end of Niagara Falls
G
Is an undiscovered Howard Hughes
So baby, don't expect to see me
C7 A
With no double martini in any high-brow society news
G B7 Em G
'Cause I got them steadily depressin', low down mind messin'
C7 D7 G
workin' at the car wash blues
G B7 Em G
Yeah, I got them steadily depressin', low down mind messin'
