Lyrics
Do What the
Bossman Say
Kept your eyes on your on work
don't look around
dont look up
and don~t look down
you like working here
you need that pay slip
there's one thing you do
you kept a tight lip can
do what your told
if you want to get your pay
do what the boss man say
don't come in early
don't come in late
you gotta cut it to the second
when your standing at the gate
if you come early
he'll think you want more money
if you come in late
your fired sonny
Do what your told
if you want to get your pay
do what the boss man say
just call it slavery
what there's paying's a crime
give you fifty dollars
and take back forty nine
I can't aford to work here
I can never save my dough
get paid just enough to kept you
but not enough to go
Do what your told
if you want to get your pay
do what the boss man say
got bills on my wall
got bills on the floor
mouths that call me daddy
they always want more
got to sweat for a nickel
dig for a dime
i can't miss a day
can't loose the time
