(Chorus)
  
   I don`t like the work but true i need the money
   My life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny
   Peolpe all around, telling me what to do
   And all I want to do is stay at home with you
  
   Time after time I say to myself
   Working all my life isn`t good for my health
   Get old, get tired, get put on the shelf
   I do all the work, someone else gets all the wealth
   Wish I was on an island in the sun
   Where I woouldn`t have to worry how to get things done
  
   (Chorus)
  
   I don`t like the work but true i need the money
   My life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny
   Peolpe all around, telling me what to do
   And all I want to do is stay at home with you
  
   Day after day becomes more of a grind
   Bills pile up, moneys harder to find
   Trying to get ahead money`s harder to find
   If I don`t give it up I`m gonna lose my mind
   Wish I was on an Island in the sun
   Where I wouldn`t have to worry how to get things done
  
   (Chorus)
  
   I don`t like the work but true i need the money
   My life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny
   Peolpe all around, telling me what to do
   And all I want to do is stay at home with you
