Clean Your Own Tables

Chip Taylor

Well now she isn't exactly what you'd
Call your all American girl
And some too many truckers took her home
And I'll admit her life would
Read just like a paperback
And some of what she's done
I've said it's wrong
But I said clean your own tables
Boys and bring out your beer
Because she isn't going to do it this time
And drink to a use to be barmaid because
She's a lady I choose to be mine
And I am not exactly been what
You call your all American boy
I've done my time in Frisco in LA
How some of youth are taking
Pride in what I am i heard you cussing this
Decision that I've made
But I said clean your own tables
And I'll admit her life would
Read just like a paperback
And some of what she's done
Well I say is wrong
But I said clean your own tables
Boys if you're able clean your own tables
And let me take care of mine
