Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)
Woo-hoo!
Uh-huh
Mmm-hmm
Anthony works in the grocery store
Savin' his pennies for some day
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-hmm
Woo-hoo
Uh-huh
Mmm-hmm
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 trading 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-ho-oh
Woo-hoo
Uh-huh
Mmm-hmm
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-hmm
Woo-hoo
Uh-huh
Mmm-hmm
I'm movin' out
Uh-huh
