[Verse 1]
C                  G
Looking back at my hard luck days
  F                 C
I really do have to laugh
C                        G
Working in a dive for twenty six dollars
F                  G
Spending it all on grass
F                 C
We were hungry hard luck heros
F                    G
Trying just to stay alive
   F                   C
So we'd go down to the corner grocery
D                   G
This is how we'd survive
[Chorus]
C
Who's going to steal the peanut butter?
F                    C
I'll get a can of sardines
C
Running up and down the aisle of the Mini Mart
D                       G
Sticking food in our jeans
   F                    C
We never took more than we could eat
          F                     G
There was plenty left on the rack
F                  C
We all swore if we ever got rich
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
F   C     F   C
Yes sir!  Yes sir!
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
[Verse 2]
         C           G
It was a two man operation
       F             C
Had it all down on a note
C                      G
Ricky would watch that big round mirror
    F              G
And I'd fill up my coat
F                      C
Then we'd head for the checkout aisle
       F                     G
With a lemon and a bottle of beer
F                       C
Into to the car, got to make it on home
D                     G
Supper time's gettin' near
[Chorus]
    C
So, who's going to steal the peanut butter?
F                      C
I'll get the can of sardines
C
Running up and down the aisle of the Mini Mart
D                    G
Sticking food in our jeans
   F                    C
We never took more than we could eat
          F                  G
There was plenty left on the rack
F                  C
We all swore if we ever got rich
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
F   C     F   C
Yes sir!  Yes sir!
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
[Verse 3]
        C                     G
I guess every good picker has had some hard times
F             C
I sure had my share
     C                       G
It's really kind of funny to laugh at it now
    F                       G
But I don't want to go back there
   F                       C
So every now and then when I'm in the grocery
  F                     G
I take a little but not much
           F                     C
'Cause you never know when those hard times will hit you
    D                       G
And I don't want to lose my touch
[Chorus]
    C
So, who's going to steal the peanut butter?
F                    C
I'll get a can of sardines
C
Running up and down the aisle of the Mini Mart
D                    G
Sticking food in our jeans
   F                    C
We never took more than we could eat
          F                  G
There was plenty left on the rack
F                  C
We all swore if we ever got rich
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
F   C     F   C
Yes sir!  Yes sir!
G                          C
We would pay the Mini Mart back
