It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

Here's the whole first verse. If no one gets it I'll try another.
I told my boss where to get off two months ago today
Now the bills are pilling high and they're hauling things away
They took the living room sofa the kool-aid stains and all
Now my butts down on a hardwood floor and my back's against the wall

All righty, then. That was "One More Repossession (and I'll Be Out of Debt)" by Perfect Stranger.
I told my boss where to get off two months ago today
Now the bills are piling high and they're hauling things away
They took the living room sofa the kool-aid stains and all
Now my butts down on a hardwood floor and my back's against the wall
One more repossession and I'll be out of debt
But what good is a VCR without a TV set
It's less and less depressing before they come again
One more repossession and I'll be out of debt
Last night I turned in early 'cause they turned off lights
The repo man took my truck in the middle of the night
Things are gone to pieces you know the times are hard
When you have to use your Visa just to pay your Mastercard
One more repossession and I'll be out of debt
But what good is a VCR without a TV set
It's less and less depressing before they come again
One more repossession and I'll be out of debt
It's getting less and less depressing before they come again
One more repossession and I'll be out of debt
Yeah one more repossession and I'll be out of debt
I remember being out dancing (C&W) one night and hearing this. I had to stop dancing, I was laughing so hard!
Try this (much easier, I imagine):
He's got a union card and he's practicing hard
To play the guitar
Gonna be a big star, yeah, he's gonna go far
And carry moon beams home in a jar

Sounds familiar.
*thinks*
At first, I thought the "jar" was from
"Would you Like to Swing on a Star",
but now I'm thinking it's
"Rosalita", by Bruce Springsteen (and the E Street Band).
If so, Clarence Clemon's saxophone riff is the most
recognizable part of the song-and I never thought I'd say
the phrase "saxophone riff" ever.
