Takin Care Of Business

You get up every morning from your alarm clock's warning

Take the 8:15 into the city

There's a whistle up above and people pushin', people shovin'

And the girls, who try to look pretty



And if your train's on time, you can get to work by nine

And start your slaving job to get your pay

If you ever get annoyed, look at me, I'm self-employed

I love to work at nothing all day



And I'll be takin' care of business every day

Takin' care of business every way

I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine

Takin' care of business and working overtime, work out



If it were easy as fishin', you could be a musician

If you could make sounds loud or mellow

Get a second-hand guitar, chances are you'll go far

If you get in with the right bunch of fellows



People see you having fun, just a-lying in the sun

Tell them that you like it this way

It's the work that we avoid and we're all self-employed

We love to work at nothing all day



And we be takin' care of business every day

Takin' care of business every way

We've been takin' care of business, it's all mine

Takin' care of business and working overtime



Take good care of my business

When I'm away, every day



You get up every morning from the alarm clock's warning

Take the 8:15 into the city

There's a whistle up above and people pushin', people shovin'

And the girls, who try to look pretty



And if your train's on time, you can get to work by nine

And start your slaving job to get your pay

If you ever get annoyed, look at me, I'm self-employed

I love to work at nothing all day



And I'll be takin' care of business every day

Takin' care of business every way

I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine

Takin' care of business and working overtime to get



Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business



Takin' care of business every day

Takin' care of business every way

Takin' care of business, it's all mine

Takin' care of business, working overtime



Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business

We've been takin' care of business

We've been takin' care of business



Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business
