Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) lyrics

Anthony works
in a grocer's store
savin' his pennies
for some day

Mama Leone left
a note on the door
she said, "Sonny,
move out to
the country"

Ah but workin' too hard
can give you a heart
attack-ack-ack-ack-
ack-ack 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 movin' out

Ooh-hoo
uh-hoo
oh no
ooh oh oh oh

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 centre

And then he's tradin'
in his Chevy for a
Cadillac-acac-acac-
acac-ac 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 movin' out

Ooh-hoo
uh-huh
oh no
mmmm

You should never
argue with a crazy
mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind
you oughta know
by now

You can pay Uncle Sam
with the over-time

Is that all you get
for your money?

And if that's what
you have in mind

If that's what
you're all about

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

I'm... movin' out

Ooh-hoo
ho hoo
uh-hu
mmmm

I'm movin' out
