Music Monday #285: 9 To 5

Hallo, liebe Musikfreunde! Heute ist der Tag der Arbeit, da bekommt ihr 9 to 5 von Dolly Parton. Das gab es zwar vor ca. 100 Montagen schon mal am Music Monday #181, aber es passt halt heute so gut. Dolly Parton kennt ihr bestimmt schon, deshalb bekommt ihr heute den Text zum Lied. Viel Spaß!

9 To 5 von Dolly Parton

Tumble out of bedAnd stumble to the kitchenPour myself a cup of ambitionAnd yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the showerAnd the blood starts pumpin’Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin’For folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
Workin’ 9 to 5What a way to make a livin’Barely gettin’ byIt’s all takin’ and no givin’
They just use your mindAnd they never give you creditIt’s enough to drive youCrazy if you let it
9 to 5For service and devotionYou would think that IWould deserve a fat promotion
Want to move aheadBut the boss won’t seem to let meI swear sometimes that man isOut to get me
They let you dreamJust a watch ’em shatterYou’re just a step on the boss man’s ladderBut you got dreams he’ll never take away
In the same boat with a lot of your friendsWaitin’ for the day your ship’ll come inAnd the tide’s gonna turnAnd it’s all gonna roll you away
Workin’ 9 to 5What a way to make livin’Barely gettin’ byIt’s all takin’ and no givin’
They just use your mindAnd you never get the creditIt’s enough to drive youCrazy if you let it
9 to 5Yeah, they got you were they want youThere’s a better lifeAnd you think about it, don’t you?
It’s a rich man’s gameNo matter what they call itAnd you spend your lifePutting money in his wallet
9 to 5Oh, what a way to make a livin’Barely gettin’ byIt’s all takin’ and no givin’
They just use your mindAnd they never give you creditIt’s enough to drive youCrazy if you let it
9 to 5Yeah, they got you where they want youThere’s a better lifeAnd you dream about it, don’t you?
It’s a rich man’s gameNo matter what they call itAnd you spend your lifePutting money in his wallet
