Beats Workin'

Here today, gone later today

I’ve been reading what the bloggers say

How about a great big slice for me?

Otherwise or professionally

Beats workin’

Startin’ up in my feet

Goes to workin’

On the rest of me

Live this life of luxury

Sho-nuff beats workin’ for me

Kid’ll land on his feet

If he don’t land on his seat

This beats workin’ baby

‘Cause I’m red hot, baby like it or not

Don’t you know that this beats workin’ baby

‘Cause I’m red hot, baby like it or not

One empty floor

Stands between the stage and the welfare door

Heads or tails

Of the same bread, coin of the realm

Just like the man said

Beats workin’

Starting up all in my feet

Goes to workin’

On the rest of me

Got a feelin’ all in my head

Try to do it like the good book said

Kid’ll land on his feet

If he don’t land on his head

This beats workin’ baby

‘Cause I’m red hot, baby like it or not

Don’t you know that this beats workin’ baby

‘Cause I’m red hot, baby like it or not

This beats workin’ baby

This beats workin’ baby

This beats workin’ baby

‘Cause I’m red hot, baby like it or not
