Takin' Care Of Business Lyrics - Kurtis Blow - Kurtis Blow

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 push and people shove 

And all the girls 

Who try to look pretty 

And if your train's on time 

You can get to work by 9 

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've been 

Takin' care of business 

Every day 

Takin' care of business 

Every way 

I've been takin' care of business 

It's all mine 

Takin' care of business 

And working overtime 

Workout 

If things were easy as fishing 

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 

And 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've been 

Takin' care of business 

Every day 

Takin' care of business 

Every way 

We've been takin' care of business 

It's all right 

Takin' care of business 

And working overtime 

Take good care of my business 

When I'm away 

Everyday 

They get up every morning from the alarm clock's warning 

Take the eight-fifteen into the city 

There's a whistle up above and people push and people shove 

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 

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 push and people shove 

And all the girls 

Who try to look pretty 

And if your train's on time 

You can get to work by 9 

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've been 

Takin' care of business 

Every day 

Takin' care of business 

Every way 

I've been takin' care of business 

It's all mine 

Takin' care of business 

And working overtime 

Takin' care of business 

Takin' care of business 

Takin' care of business 

Takin' care of business 

Takin' care of business 

Every day 

Takin' care of business 

Every way 

Takin' care of business 

It's all mine 

Takin' care of business 

And working overtime 

Takin' care of business
