      C
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
        F
Been a long time coming for the working man
    Am
So shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
          G
When the money is high, we can start to spend
      C
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
        F
Been a long time coming for the working man
    Am
So shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
          G
When the money is high, we can start to spend
Shake it

C
Every little bit goes a little of a long way.
                                               F
Life gets hard and I'm headed for the highway home, home
Am
Caught up in the middle of a headache and a heartbreak

Just when I thought
                              G
I was clear of the mistakes, No, no oh oh

    C
So tell me, tell me, tell me, what am I to do
    F
I think that this life is darker than the view
    Am
So help me, help me, help me, be a little more like you
     G
When everything is falling,
I'm gonna do the things you do

Chorus

Everything is serious and everything is fatal
That's what they tell you and that's how they make you
Know, know-oh-oh-oh (Know-oh-oh-oh)
I'm tired of the books and tired of the tables
Everything is made with the same old labels
No, no-oh-oh-oh (No-oh-oh-oh)

So tell me, tell me, tell me
What am I to do?
I think that this life is darker than the view
So help me, help me, help me
Be a little more like you
When everything is falling
I'm gonna do the things you do

Chorus

Chorus:
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
Been a long time coming for the working man
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
When the money's high, we can start to spend
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
Been a long time coming for the working man
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
When the money's high, we can start to spend
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
Been a long time coming for the working man
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
When the money's high, we can start to spend
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
Been a long time coming for the working man
Shake it, shake it, and we're moving again
When the money's high, we can start to spend
Shake it
