Dirtbag Lament

I'm 23, please hire me - my momma won't support me any more
I'm 23, please hire me - my momma simply kicked me out the door.

My home's on Shadow Mountain, in a little orange tent.	
I'd rather live in Jackson but I just ain't got the rent
I went to Tee-tin Village, to get myself a job
The first 4 places kicked me out, they said I was a slob.

I'm 23, please hire me - my momma won't support me any more
I'm 23, please hire me - my momma simply kicked me out the door.

I went to Snow King Ho-tel, in answer to their ad
They said they had no job for me - that really made me mad
I'd be the perfect front desk clerk, I got a new tattoo
Right here on my forehead, says "Momma, I hate you."

I'm 23, please hire me - my momma won't support me any more
I'm 23, please hire me - my momma simply kicked me out the door.

I got back on my bicycle and headed out for home
There's buffalo on my bike path, I guess that's where they roam
It's time to leave your little town - so long, Jackson Hole
I'm bound for Colorado, marijuana soothes my soul.

I'm 23, please hire me - my momma won't support me any more
I'm 23, please hire me - my momma simply kicked me out the door.
