[Verse]
B G#m
Back in the day, back in the hills, we were busted,
E F#
made a livin' on the government dime
B G#m E F#
Mama wouldn't keep her job, and the alimony check never came on time
B G#m E F#
We were poor, I wasn't proud, only angry that our daddy couldn't send us more
B G#m E F#
Always embarrassed by my free lunch card, and food stamps for the grocery store
[Chorus]
B E
No keepin' up with the Joneses, no keepin' up with the Joneses
B F#
When you're stuck on the bottom, you take what you can get
You say "ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh"
[Instrumental]

B G#m
I went to school in hand-me- downs from my cousin,
E F#
baggy britches seemed to suit me well
B G#m E F#
Kinda thin, kinda loose in the middle, slouchin' in after the tardy bell
B G#m
The teacher never called me trash, but I knew what
E F#
she was thinkin' when she looked at me
B G#m E F#
Born to be the under- class, growin' up to make a livin' on our chari- ty
[Chorus]
B E
No keepin' up with the Joneses, no keepin' up with the Joneses
B F#
When you're stuck on the bottom, you take what you can get
You say "ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh"

B G#m E F#
Don't go lookin' down your nose at me neighbor, I could spot you from a yard a- way
B G#m E F#
Don't try to judge me by the clothes I'm wearing or the cars in my drive way
B G#m E F#
I'm not rich but I'm not poor any longer, and I'm happy as a man could be
B G#m E F#
I'm proud to work, I'm proud to pay my taxes, and I'm grateful for my fami- ly
[Chorus]
B E
No keepin' up with the Joneses, no keepin' up with the Joneses
B F#
When you come up from the bottom, you love whatever you got
You say "ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh"
