Easy Street Lyrics
Easy Street - June Christy
Written by:Alan Rankin Jones
I'm tired of having an aching back
I'm gonna move to a little green shade
On easy street
I'd love to live on easy street
Nobody works on easy street
Just sit around all day
Just sit around and play the horses
Life is sweet for folks
Who live on easy street
No weekly payments you must meet
That makes your hair turn gray
When opportunity comes knocking
You just keep on with your rocking
Cause you know your fortune's made
And anytime you saw a desire
There's a man that you can hire
To plant trees so you can have shade
On easy street
I'm telling everyone that I meet
If I could live on easy street
I would want no job today
So please go away
When opportunity comes knocking
You just keep on a rocking
Cause you know your fortune's made
And anytime you saw a desire
There's a man that you can hire
To plant trees so you can have shade
On easy street
I'm telling everyone that I meet
If I could live on easy street
I would want no job today
So please go away
Now if you got some work
I'm afraid I'm bound to shirk
Cause I don't want no work today
