Lyrics
You go to work, work hard all day
At the end of the week, you collect your pay
That's just where it's at
It's as simple as that
You pay your bills the best that you can
But the rising cost sure hurts a family man
While the rich man gets fat
It's as simple as that
And the money goes so fast it ain't funny
Ba-ha-ha, it ain't funny
Your mind's made up to get that house on the hill
But you just don't know if you ever will
'Cause you can't get the cash
It's as simple as that
'Cause the man from the bank, he won't give you a loan
Without putting a mortgage on all that you own
A tit for a tat, that's how it is
It's as simple as that
Ooh, and the money goes so fast it ain't funny
Ba-ha-ha, it ain't funny
No, it's as simple, it's as simple
It's as simple as that, hey!
Before you know it, the kids, they're all grown
Married off with kids of their own
Now it's all in the past, true story, yeah
It's as simple as that
You've reached the autumn of your life
And all that's left is you and your wife
And a dog and a cat, that's how it is
It's as simple as that
Ooh, and the money goes so fast it ain't funny
Ba-ha-ha, it ain't funny
Nooo, it's as simple, it's as simple
It's as simple as that, hey yeah!
It's as simple, it's as simple
It's as simple as that
It's as simple, it's as simple
It's as simple as that, hey yeah!
