Fun With Playlists 2

So I’m putting together a playlist I’ve dubbed “Laid Off Blues”, and I wanted to solicit some suggestions.

Here’s what I’ve culled so far from my own personal library, in no particular order:

School’s Out – Alice Cooper
Fired – Ben Folds
It’s The End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine) – R.E.M.
Say Goodbye Hollywood – Eminem
Goodbye – Patty Griffin
I’m A Long Gone Daddy – Hank Williams
Already Gone – Tarbox Ramblers
Leaving To Stay – Kevin Bowe and the Okemah Prophets
Leavin’ – Shelby Lynne
Why I Left California – Liz Phair
The World Has Turned and Left Me Here – Weezer
I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself – The White Stripes
California – Rufus Wainwright
Day Job – Gin Blossoms
Why Don’t You Get A Job – The Offspring
Get A Job – The Silhouettes
Nice Work if You Can Get It – Billie Holiday
Bad Days – The Flaming Lips
The Union Forever – The White Stripes
Sixteen Tons – Johnny Cash

Any other songs y’all feel are glaringly absent from this list?

    “Free Fallin” seemed to work fine for Jerry Maguire. And FYI, I don’t know if you like Tom Petty, but Peter Bogdanovich’s documentary is a fantastic six hours of time killing while unemployed. Plus Best Buy gave me a $10 gift card when I bought it.
