"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"
Ah, 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
Ooh-ooh, uh-huh, mmm

Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat
At night he becomes a bartender
He works at Mr. Cacciatore's
Down on Sullivan Street
Across from the medical center

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, yeah)

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
And if that's what you have in mind
Yeah, if that's what you're all about
Good luck movin' up
'Cause I'm moving out
Mmm, I'm movin' out
Ooh-yeah
