Lyrics

[Intro]
Dm Gm7
C Caug Fmaj7  Dm  Gm7  C Caug Fmaj7
            Oh  ah   Mm

[Verse 1]
Dm                      Gm7
Anthony works in the grocery store
C            Caug             Fmaj7
Savin' his pennies for someday
Dm                Gm7
Mama Leone left a note on the door
         C
She said "Sonny,
        Caug           Fmaj7
move out    to the country"

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                              G7
Workin' too hard can give you a heart attack
Bb                    C
You oughta know by now
Dm                         G7
Who needs a house out in Hackensack
   C                Caug          Fmaj7
Is that all you get for your money

[Chorus]
       Bb           Bb/D         C C/Bb
And it seems such a waste of time
   A                A/Db     Dm
If that's what it's all about
Dm/C
Mama,
         Bb                  Em7b5
if that's  movin' up then I'm
A
 movin' out

[Solo Sax]
Dm  Gm7
  Mm   I'm movin' out
C Caug  Fmaj7  Dm  Gm7  C Caug Fmaj7
      Mm     Oh  ah   Mm

[Verse 2]
Dm                     Gm7
Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat
   C               Caug     Fmaj7
At night he becomes    a bartender
            Dm
He works at Mister.
                     Gm7
Cacciatore's down on Sullivan Street
  C               Caug        Fmaj7
Across from the medical center

[Pre-Chorus]
         Dm                         G7
And he's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac
Bb                    C
You oughta know by now
Dm                           G7
And if he can't drive with a broken back
   C              Caug            Fmaj7
At least he can polish the fenders

[Chorus]
       Bb           Bb/D         C C/Bb
And it seems such a waste of time
   A                A/Db     Dm
If that's what it's all about
Dm/C
Mama,
         Bb                  Em7b5
if that's  movin' up then I'm
A
 movin' out

[Solo Sax]
Dm  Gm7
  Mm   I'm movin' out
C Caug  Fmaj7  Dm  Gm7  C Caug Fmaj7
      Mm     Oh  ah   Mm

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                            G7
You should never argue with a crazy mind
Bb                    C
You oughta know by now
           Dm                    G7
You can pay  Uncle Sam with the overtime
   C                Caug          Fmaj7
Is that all you get for your money

[Chorus]
       Bb              Bb/D        C C/Bb
And if that's what you have in mind
      A                     A/Db     Dm Dm/C
Yeah, if that's what you're all about
         Bb                   Em7b5
Good luck  movin' up cause I'm
A
 movin' out

[Solo Sax]
Dm  Gm7
  Mm   I'm movin' out
C Caug  Fmaj7  Dm  Gm7  C Caug Fmaj7
      Mm     Oh  ah   Mm
