John Hiatt – Don't Bug Me When I'm Working lyrics
Don't bug me when I'm working,

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working,

Got a job to do

Don't bug me when I'm working,

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working

I don't work for you

If you bug me at work

I can't get it done

Too tired, baby,

To have any fun

If you got complaints, better keep 'em hid

Don't come 'round here and mess with the kid

Don't bug me when I'm sleepin'

I'm sleepin', I'm sleepin'

Don't bug me when I'm sleepin'

'Cause I need my rest

Don't bug me when I'm working

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working

Got to buzz awhile

I said don't bug me hen I'm working,

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working

I don't work for you

Don't bug me when I'm sleepin'

I'm sleepin', I'm sleepin'

Don't bug me when I'm sleepin'

Got work to do

Now you bug me at home

When I'm tired and beat

Can't even stand on my own two feet

You call on the phone, you make me uptight

And I can't even work, with my baby at night

Don't bug me when I'm working

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working

Got a job to do

Don't bug me when I'm working

I'm working, I'm working

Don't bug me when I'm working

I don't work for you

Don't bug me

'Cause I don't work for you

Don't bug me

Mister I don't work for you

Don't bug me, don't bug me

'Cause I don't work for you

Don't bug me, don't bug me

'Cause I don't work for you

At the sound of the tone

Better hang up the phone

If you want to be my friend

Don't bug me when I'm workin'
