9 to 5 lyrics

Tumble out of bed

And Stumble to the kitchen

Pour myself a cup of ambition

And yawn and stretch and try to come to life

Jump in the shower

And the blood starts pumpin'

Out on the streets

The traffic starts jumpin'

For folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Workin' 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin'

And no givin'

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, for service and devotion

You would think that I

Would deserve a fat promotion

Want to move ahead

But the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is out to get me

Mmmmm...

They let you dream

Just a' watch 'em shatter

You're just a step

On the boss man's ladder

But you got dreams he'll never take away

In the same boat

With a lot of your friends

Waitin' for the day

Your ship'll come in

And the tide's gonna turn

An' it's all gonna roll you away

Workin' 9 to 5

What a way to make livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin'

And no givin'

They just use your mind

And you never get the credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you were they want you

There's a better life

And you think about it don't you

It's a rich man's game

No matter what they call it

And you spend your life

Putting money in his wallet

9 to 5

Oh What a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin'

And no givin'

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you

There's a better life

And you dream about it don't you

It's a rich man's game

No matter what they call it

And you spend your life

Putting money in his wallet

9 to 5
