Oh, Miss Jones (live at The Barn) Lyrics

Went to the movies just the other day

That little joint just off of Broadway

I wouldn't say that they were rated"G"

But that other letter looked all right to me

There was this guy in a business suit

Tellin' Miss Jones that her bills were due

She cleared his desk off, took him by the hand

Told him she'd pay on the installment plan

He said, oh, oh, oh Miss Jones

Well you drive a hard bargain, but I'll leave you alone

He said, oh, oh, oh Miss Jones

Now I think you'd better go on home

Just about then, you know, he got a call

Good ol' Miss Jones, she headed down the hall

She caught the elevator on the run

Punched up the button that said number one

On the way down, you know, it stopped again

A good-lookin' guy came a-strollin' in

Look at that arrow up above the door

It just stopped movin' between five and four

You can just bet you, now, who threw the switch

Good ol' Miss Jones, you know she got the itch

All of the people waitin' on the ground

Good ol' Miss Jones, she's still goin' down

He said, oh, oh, oh Miss Jones

Well, you gave me the shaft, now I can't leave you alone

He said, oh, oh, oh Miss Jones

Well I think you'd better go on home
