Gentleman of Leisure - Jesse Winchester

I want a job that’s not too demanding

Like where you do a lot of standing

No way to be an elevator operator

No way a salesman, no way a waiter

Cause I’m a gentleman, a gentleman of leisure

The classified ads got nothing too appealing

I don’t know, but I just got the feeling

It might take some time to find a position

With a pretty secretary, time to do some fishing

Cause I’m a gentleman, gentleman of leisure

Whoa

I’m a gentleman (I'm a gentleman)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Set me in the sun (In the sun)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Let me take my time (Take my time)

I bet you I can please you (Bet you I can please you)

Forty-hour week, can’t you make it thirty?

No heavy lifting, you get yourself dirty

Beautiful office, thirty-seven floors

Paintings on the wall

Title on the door says

Gentleman of Leisure

I look nice in a clean white collar

Take-home pay, oh, say a million dollars

I’ll keep looking, never say die

Somebody, somewhere is looking for a guy

Who’s a gentleman, gentleman of leisure

Whoa

I’m a gentleman (I'm a gentleman)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Set me in the sun (In the sun)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Let me take my time (Take my time)

I bet you I can please you (Bet you I can please you)

Whoa

I’m a gentleman (I'm a gentleman)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Set me in the sun (In the sun)

Gentleman of leisure (Gentleman of leisure)

Let me take my time (Let me take my time)

I bet you I can please you (Bet you I can please you)
