UB40 All I Want to Do song lyrics

(chorus)

i don`t like the work but true i need the money

my life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny

peolpe all around, telling me what to do

and all i want to do is stay at home with you

Time after time i say to myself

working all my life isn`t good for my health

get old, get tired, get put on the shelf

i do all the work, someone else gets all the wealth

wish i was on an island in the sun

where i woouldn`t have to worry how to get things done

(chorus)

I don`t like the work but true i need the money

my life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny

peolpe all around, telling me what to do

and all i want to do is stay at home with you

Day after day becomes more of a grind

bills pile up, moneys harder to find

trying to get ahead money`s harder to find

if i don`t give it up i`m gonna lose my mind

wish i was on an island in the sun

where i wouldn`t have to worry how to get things done

(chorus)

I don`t like the work but true i need the money

my life is like a joke but to me is isn`t funny

peolpe all around, telling me what to do

and all i want to do is stay at home with you
