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