You get up in the mornin'
From the alarm clock's warnin'
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
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 slavin' job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothin' all day
And I've been 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
Working overtime
Look out
Work as easy as fishin'
You could be a musician
If you can make sounds loud and mellow
Get a second-hand guitar
Chances are, you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
(That's us)
People see you havin' fun
Just a-lyin' in the sun
And you tell them that you like it this way
(Oh, yeah)
It's the work that we avoid
'Cause we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day
(No way)
And I've been 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
Workin' overtime
Work out
Hate
To
Work
Got
To
Play
Takin' care of business
Every day
Takin' care of business
Every way
Takin' care of business
It's all mine
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
(Takin' care of business)
Takin' care of business
(Takin' care of business)
Takin' care of business
(Takin' care of business)
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
