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
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
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
Take good care of my business
When I´m away, every day whoo
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
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
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
Takin´ care of business
Takin´ care of business
Takin´ care of business
Takin´ care of business
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
