Verse 1
They get up every morning from the alarm clock's warning take the
8:15 into the city.
There's a whistle up above and people pushing, people shoving and
the girls who try to look pretty.
And if your trains 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 takin' care of business everyday.
Takin' care business everyway.
I'll be takin' care of business. It's all mine!
Takin' care of business and workin' overtime. Work out.
Lead break 2
just do the same chord riffs)
It's as easy as fishing, you can be a musician,
if you could make sounds sort of 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 lyin' in the sun,
tell them that you like it this way.
It's the work that we avoid. Hey, we're all self employeed.
We love to work at nothing all day.
Fill:
Take good care of my business when I'm away everyday.
