I ain't gonna work here no more

I ain't gonna work here no more

Honey, come & dance with me

Cause I ain't gonna work here no more

The stars gonna fall from the sky

The stars gonna fall from the sky

Diamonds, jewels & rubies too

And the stars gonna fall from the sky

Oh Oh

A million miles away from here

And I ain't gonna work here no more

You can't tell a man by his clothes

You can't tell a man by his clothes

A toad is a prince in someone else's eyes

And you can't tell a man by his clothes

I ain't gon' be treated this way

I ain't gon' be treated this way

This time I think they've gone too far

And I ain't gon' be treated this way

Oh Oh

A million miles away from here

And I ain't gon' be treated this way

Oh ? Oh

A million miles away from there

And we ain't gonna work here no more

Some sunny day

I been waitin' so long

Gonna walk right outa here

And I ain't gonna work here no more

We must have been out of our minds

We must have been out of our minds

You don't have to cry no more

We must have been out of our minds

Oh ? Oh

A million miles away from here

And we must have been out of our minds

Oh ? Oh

A million miles away from here

And I ain't gonna work here no more

A million miles away from here

And I don't have to cry anymore
