Billy Joel - 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"

Workin' too hard can give me a heart attack

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?

Refrein:

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 oh-hoo, uh-huh

Mmmm

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 Checy for a Cadillacacacacacac

You oughta know by now

And if he can`t drive with a broken back

At least he can polish the fenders

Refrein.

Mmm, I'm movin' out, oh-oh

Ooh-hoo, uh-huh, mmm.

You should never argue with a crazy mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind.

You oughta know by now.

You can pay Uncle Sam with overtime

Is that all you get for your money?

Refrein.

Mmm, I'm movin' out, mm

Ooh-hoo, uh-huh, mmmm.

I'm movin' out...
