Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)

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"

Oh, but workin' too hard can give you a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack

You oughta know by now (You oughta know by now)

Who needs a house out in Hackensack?

Is that all you get for your money?

And 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

Mmm, I'm movin' out, mmm

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

Yeah, and he's tradin' in his Chevy

For a Cadillac-ac-ac-ac-ac-ac

You oughta know by now (You oughta know by now)

And if he can't drive with a broken back

At least he can polish the fenders

And 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

Mmm, I'm movin' out, oh

You should never argue

With a crazy mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind

You oughta know by now (You oughta know by now)

You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime

Is that all you get for your money?

And if that's what you have in mind

Yeah, that's what you're all about

Good luck movin' up, 'cause I'm movin' out

Mmm, I'm movin' out, mmm

I'm movin' out
