Takin Care Of Business
(Bachman-Turner Overdrive)
You get up every morning
From your alarm clocks warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
Theres a whistle up above
And people pushin, people shovin
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 Im self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And Ill be...
[Refrain]
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
Ive been taking care of business, its 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 youll 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
Its the work that we avoid
And were all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day
And we be...
[Refrain]
[Spoken] Take good care of my business
When Im away, every day whoo!
[Repeat first 2 verses]
[Refrain]
Takin care of business [4x]
[Refrain]
Takin care of business [repeat, fade]
