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

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

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

Ain't nothin', ain't no one, gonna hold me down, ain't nothin',
