Lyrics of Taking 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
taking care of business every day
taking care of business every way
i've been taking care of business, it's all mine
taking 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
taking care of business every day
taking care of business every way
i've been taking care of business, it's all mine
taking care of business and working overtime
take good care of my business
when i'm away, every day whoo 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
taking care of business every day
taking care of business every way
i've been taking care of business, it's all mine
taking care of business and working overtime takin' care of business
takin' care of business
takin' care of business
takin' care of business
takin' care of business
