THE DROP OUT As recorded by The Everly Brothers (From the 1964 Album GONE GONE GONE) Capo 3rd fret [Intro] [Verse 1] I work in a big supermarket in L.A And earn every dollar I spend I own my own car but I’m not very happy I don’t go to school with my friends [Chorus] Some people they say that I have no ambition A failure I’m destined to be But money’s important when you haven’t any So I dropped out to get what I need For I have to take care of me [Verse 2] I work every day so I miss education There’s no one around to help me This spring I’ll attend all my friends’ graduation But there’ll be no diploma for me [Chorus] Some people they say that I have no ambition A failure I’m destined to be But money’s important when you haven’t any So I dropped out to get what I need For I have to take care of me [Guitar Solo]                [Out-Chorus] Some people they say that I have no ambition A failure I’m destined to be But money’s important when you haven’t any So I dropped out to get what I need For I have to take care of me I dropped out to get what I need For I have to take care of me I dropped out to get what I need
