Billy Joel
Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)
Lyrics
Anthony works in the grocery store Savin' his pennies for someday Mama Leone left a note on the door She said, "Sonny, move out to the country" Workin' too hard can give you A heart attack (ack, ack, ack, ack, ack) You oughta know by now (oughta know) Who needs a house out in Hackensack Is that what you get for your money? It seems such a waste of time If that's what it's all about Mama if that's movin' up Then I'm movin' out I'm movin' out Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat At night he becomes a bartender He works at Mister Cacciatore's down On Sullivan Street Across from the medical center He's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac (ack, ack, ack, ack, ack) You oughta know by now And if he can't drive With a broken back At least he can polish the fenders It seems such a waste of time If that's what it's all about Mama if that's movin' up Then I'm movin' out I'm movin' out You should never argue with a crazy mind (mi-, mi-, mi-, mi-, mi-) You oughta know by now You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime Is that all you get for your money If that's what you have in mind If that's what you're all about Good luck movin' up 'Cause I'm moving out I'm moving out (mmm) Ou, ou, uh huh (mmm) I'm moving out
