Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes - I've Been Working Too Hard lyrics

Now brothers and sisters gathered here today I got something I want to share with you Now let me warn you, it's a sad, sad story But I swear every word is true Now, money and me don't talk too much We never got along too well But when I got some in my pocket I seem to have a lot more friends I pay the landlord and the taxman And it's time to go to work again Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness? I need somebody, let me hear you say Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I got to get just a little bit out of control I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard Gotta find somebody just to soothe my soul I had a young girl back in Cleveland My baby would not be true It took me a while to realize The evil that some girls do I told her mother and father what I did And they said, "What kind of work is that?" Well, they said I just didn't never have the fear of God They could tell by the way I laughed Well, she ran off and married a preachers son In a ragtop Cadillac Can I get a witness? You know I need a witness I need somebody, let me hear you say Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard Lord, I've been workin' too hard I got to get out ? lose control I've been workin' too hard You know, I've been workin' too hard Yeah, I've been workin' too hard Gotta find somebody just to soothe my soul Well, people, I've learned my lesson And I've learned my lesson well Some girls want your money But your money is the Devil himself But life can get confusing Whether you're high, low, rich or poor I swear when you get right down to it There's only one thing that I know for sure Before this night is over I'll be in trouble and I'm lookin' for more, more, more Can I get a witness? I got to find a witness You know, I need somebody, let me hear you say Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yea, yeah I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I need to get just a little bit out of control Tonight my baby I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard [Incomprehensible] I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard Got to get out of control I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard ? I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard I got to get just a little out of control I've been workin' too hard I've been workin' too hard
