Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man
So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend
Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man
So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend
Shake it
Every little bit goes a little of a long way
Life gets hard and I’m headed
For the highway home
Caught up in the middle
Of a headache and heartbreak
Just when I thought
I was clear of the mistakes
No, no oh oh
So tell me, tell me, tell me
What am I to do?
I think that this life is
Darker than the view
So help me, help me, help me
Be a little more like you
When everything is falling
I’m gonna do the things you do
Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man
So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend
Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man
So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend
Shake it
Everything is serious
And everything is fatal
That’s what they tell you
And that’s how they make you know
I’m tired of the books
And I’m tired of the tables
Everything is made
With the same old labels
So tell me, tell me, tell me
What am I to do?
I think that this life is darker than the view
So help me, help me, help me
Be a little more like you
When everything is falling
I’m gonna do the things you do
Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man
So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend
Shake it
