Takin` Care Of Business Lyrics

Takin` Care Of Business lyrics

Song: Bachman-Turner Overdrive

 

 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...

 [Refrain]

 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...

 [Refrain]

 

 [Spoken] Take good care of my business

 When I'm away, every day whoo!

 

 [Repeat first 2 verses]

 

 [Refrain]

 

 Takin' care of business [4x]

 

 [Refrain]

 

 Takin' care of business [repeat, fade]
