Bachman Turner Overdrive - Takin' Care Of Business

They get up every mornin'
From the 'larm clock warnin',
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 slavin' job to get your pay.
If you ever get annoyed,
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothin' all day

And I've been
Takin' care of business, everyday;
Takin' care of business everyway.
I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine;
Takin' care of business and working overtime,
Workout.

There's work 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 havin' fun -
Just (a)lyin# 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 like to work at nothin' all day.

And we've been
Takin' care of business, everyday;
Takin' care of business, everyway.
I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine;
Takin' care of business and working overtime

Take good care of my business
When I'm away, everyday whoo!

They get up every mornin'
From the 'larm clock warnin'
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 slavin' job to get your pay.
If you ever get annoyed,
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothin' all day

And I'll be...
Takin' care of business everyday
Takin' care of business everyway
I've been taking 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...
