Lyric Takin Care Of Business

(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]
