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
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.
I'm movin' out...mmm-hmm...ooo-ooo...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
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

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.
I'm movin' out...uh-huh...ooh-ooh...uh-huh...mmm-hmm.

You should never argue with a crazy mind
(mind-mind-mind-mind-mind)
You oughta know by now
You can pay Uncle Sam with overtime
Is that all you get for your money?

And if that's what you have in mind
And if that's what you're all about
Good luck movin' up 'cause I'm movin' out
I'm movin' out...mmm-hmm...ooo-ooo...uh-huh...mmm-hmm.

(motorcycle riff-raff motor running.)
