Anthony works in the grocery store
Saving his pennies for someday
Momma Leoni left a note on the door
She said, "Sonny, move out to the country"
Aww
But working too hard can give you a heart attack
Ack

You oughta know by now
Who needs a house out in Hackensack
Is that all you get for your money
And it seems such a waste of time
If that's what it's all about
Momma if that's moving up then I'm moving out

Mmm
I'm moving out
Mmhmm
Ooh

Seargeant O'Leary is walking the beat
At night he becomes a bartender
He works at Mr Cacciatorre's
Down on Sullivant Street across from the medical center
And he's trading in his Chevy for a Cadillac
Lac

Lac
Lac
You oughta know by now
If he can't drive with a broken back at least he can polish the fenders
And it seems such a waste of time if that's what it's all about
Momma if that's moving up then I'm moving out

Ooh
I'm moving out
Oh

You should never argue with a crazy ma
Ma

Man
You oughta know by now
You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime
Is that all you get for your money
And if that's what you have in mind
Yeah
If that's what you're all about
Good luck moving up 'cause I'm moving out

Ooh
I'm moving out
Mmhmm
Ooh
Uh huh
Mmhmm
