Five days a week, the whole year through
I punch the clock, and I'll see the job through
I'm in the morning and out by five
Some days I tell you, I feel barely alive, well
Sometimes I wonder what do I do it for?
I take all I can 'til I can't take anymore
Still I know I can't walk out that door
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
Yeah, that's what I do it for
For the money

Now, me and the boss
We don't always see eye to eye
We can never get it right
No matter how hard we try
You can't get ahead, you can't fight back, well
You don't say a word, I'll give you the second
Sometimes I wonder what is it all about?
I put it all in, and I get so little out
Still I know I can't, I can't live without
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
I do it, I do it, I do it for money
Yeah, that's what I do it for
For the money

Bread on the table and clothes on my back
Roof over my head, a piece of land out back
In thirty more years, I'll have it paid back
In thirty more years, I could tell them to
Shove it right up their-
