He`s only six years old, that old Killer died.
Put him down in a great big hole, I fill it up all the time.
See the buildings rise up to the sky, parking meters, traffic cops.
You best watch your record son, they`ll come and lock you up.
Chorus:
I`ve been working all night.
I go long into the day.
Ain`t got much money now.
Got the time ahead, got the time ahead to pay
Smoke and lightning, dressed to kill.
Don`t talk to strangers, that`s all you know.
Forty years of sudden death, the daylight`s still not over yet.
You should live to see evening fall, doctors working overtime.
Too much of a good thing, not enough, stepping stones, building blocks.
(Chorus)
I`ve been working all night.
I go long into the day.
Ain`t got much money now.
Got the time ahead
I`ve been working all night.
I go long into the day.
Ain`t got much money now.
Got the time ahead, got the time ahead, got the time ahead to pay
