We get up every morning for the long hot warning. Take the 8:15 into the city There’s a whistle up above People pushing, people shoving and the girls, are trying to look pretty.
And if your train’s on time you can get to work by 9:00. Start your stinking job to get your pay. If you ever get annoyed you can be self-employed. I love to work at nothing all day.
[chorus] And I’ve been taking care of business every day, every way Taking care of business every way. I’ve been taking care of business it’s all mine. Taking care of business and working overtime.
Its an easy transition to be a musician If you can make a sound kind of mellow. Get a second-hand guitar Chances are you’ll go far If you hang out with the right kind of fellows. People see you having fun just 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.
