Lyrics:
[Verse 1] 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 you a heart attack Ack-ack-ack-ack-ack [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 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 I'm movin' out [Verse 2] 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 Yeah, and he's tradin' in his Chevy For a Cadillac-ac-ac-ac-ac-ac [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 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 I'm movin' out [Break] You should never argue With a crazy mind-mind-mind-mind [Bridge] You oughta know by now (You oughta know by now) You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime Is that all you get for your money [Chorus] 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 movin' out I'm movin' out [Outro] I'm movin' out!
