Dolly Parton - 9 to 5
Tumble outta bed & I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition & Yawnin' stretchin', tryin' come to life Jumpin' in the shower & the blood starts pumpin' Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin' With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, Its all takin' & no givin' They just use your mind & they never give you credit Its enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, for service & devotion You would think that I, would deserve a fair promotion Want to move ahead, but the boss won't seem to let me I swear sometimes that man is out to get me Hmmmm... They let you dream, Just to watch 'em shatter You're just a step on the boss mans ladder But you've got dream he'll never take away In the same boat with a lotta of your friends Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in And the tides gonna turn & it's all gonna roll your way Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, Its all takin' & no givin' They just use your mind & they never give you credit Its enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you There's a better life & you think about it don't you? Its a rich mans game, no matter what they call it And you spend your life, puttin' money in his wallet Workin 9 to 5, oh what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, Its all takin' & no givin' They just use your mind & they never give you credit Its enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you There's a better life & you think about it don't you? Its a rich mans game, no matter what they call it And you spend your life, puttin money in his wallet |
