Anthony works in the grocery store
  Savin his pennies for some day
  Mama Leone left a note on the door
  She said "Sonny move out to the country"
  Ah but working too hard can give you
  A heart attack, ack, ack, ack, ack, ack
  You ought-a know by now
  Who needs a house out in Hackensack?
  Is that all you get for your money?
  
  And it seems such a waste of time
  If that's what it's all about
  Mama if that's movin up then I'm movin out
  Mm I' movin out, mm oo oo uh huh mm hm
  
  You should never argue with a crazy mi mi mi mi mi mind
  You ought-a know by now
  You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime
  Is that all you get for your money
  And if that's what you have in mind
  Then that's what you're all about
  Good luck movin up cause I'm movin out
  Mm I'm movin out Mm oo oo uh huh mm hm
  
  Sergeant O'Leary is walkin the beat
  At night he becomes a bartender
  He works at Mister Cacciatores
  Down on Sullivan Street
  Across from the medical center
  And he's tradin in his Chevy for
  A Cadillac ack ack ack ack ack
  You ought-a know by now
  If he can't drive with a broken back
  At least he can polish the fenders
  (repeat chorus)
