Work Is a Four Letter Word
There are girls that some men will slave for
To provide the things that they pay for
Why do you think work is a four-letter word
Loving you is driving me crazy
People say that you were born lazy
'Cause you think that work is a four-letter word
Don't waste your life
There is so much I know you can do
Let me see you wide awake
And take on the world that is waiting for you
If you cry I'll be right behind you
And my love will help to remind you
To forget that work is a four letter word
I don't want a house that's a show place
I just feel that we're getting no place
While you say that work is a four-letter word
Don't waste your life
There is so much I know you can do
Let me see you wide awake
And take on the world that is waiting for you
If you cry I'll be right behind you
And my love will help to remind you
To forget that work is a four letter word
I don't want a house that's a show place
I just feel that we're getting no place
While you say that work is a four-letter word
Four-letter word!
To provide the things that they pay for
Why do you think work is a four-letter word
Loving you is driving me crazy
People say that you were born lazy
'Cause you think that work is a four-letter word
Don't waste your life
There is so much I know you can do
Let me see you wide awake
And take on the world that is waiting for you
If you cry I'll be right behind you
And my love will help to remind you
To forget that work is a four letter word
I don't want a house that's a show place
I just feel that we're getting no place
While you say that work is a four-letter word
Don't waste your life
There is so much I know you can do
Let me see you wide awake
And take on the world that is waiting for you
If you cry I'll be right behind you
And my love will help to remind you
To forget that work is a four letter word
I don't want a house that's a show place
I just feel that we're getting no place
While you say that work is a four-letter word
Four-letter word!
