Billy wants a job with a name on his shirt He’s come in from the country and he’s looking for
work
No, he don’t want a dime more than the world thinks he worth
Billy wants a job with a name on his shirt
Debby’s got a job where she’s working for tips Handing out eggs and fake compliments
And, if she smiles real pretty, she just might make rent
Debby’s got a job where she’s working for tips
They ain’t trying to set the world on fire. Ain’t trying to be something they’re not
They found, it seems, the American dream That everyone else here forgot
Next thing you know Billy’s stopping on by Trying to smile clever and catching her eye
and, the coffee gets cold but he doesn’t seem to mind
Debby’s been noticing Billy stopping on by
Billy finally got up the courage to ask A couple weeks of pay just to say this ain’t glass
and, the ring won’t matter once Debby says yes
Billy finally got up the courage to ask
They ain’t trying to set their hearts on fire Just trying to find love in this world
They found, it seems, the American dream Boy meets girl
Life’s not as hard as we make it. The answers just might be winking at you
If someone offers you love you should take it. Cause sometimes one and one adds up to way
more than two
Now there’s a baby with a Daddy with a name on his shirt
They’ll never be rich but they’ll always find work.
And Billy’s gonna teach that boy just what it’s worth to love someone more than anything else on
this earth
