Lyrics
I lie on the couch all day
The clicker in my hand
I lie on the couch all day
Sippin? from a silver can
I got nothin? better to do
But don?t let it worry you
?Cause ?round about the 5 o?clock hour
I get up and take a shower
So when my baby returns
I am her sweet-smellin? man!
Chorus
She makes the livin?
She works very hard I know
She makes the livin?
She goes out in rain or snow!
She makes the livin?
So I can live in style
And she goes to work every day with a smile!
She makes the livin? baby
(Second time only) She makes the livin?
But I, I make the livin? worthwhile!
Sometimes I go for a walk
Around my neighborhood
I meet with the guys, we talk
?Bout how the livin?s so good!
I got nowhere better to be
But don?t let it worry me
Cause every night when the sun?s goin? down
I go home and tidy around
So when my baby returns
She finds me just like she should!
Chorus
