Won't you come along with me
I want to live on on easy
Nobody works on easy street
Just sit and play the horses,
For folk who live on Easy Street
When opportunity comes knocking,
you just get on with your rocking
cause you know, your fortune's made.
And any time you so desire,
there's a man that you can hire
to plant trees, so you can have shade.
I'm telling everyone I meet
If I could live on Easy Street
I wouldn't want no job today
I want to live my life on Easy Street
Nobody ever works on Easy Street
Live, sit and grow fat an d lazy,
Sweet for the folk who live on Easy Street
That makes your hair turn
When opportunity comes knocking
You just get on with your rocking
Cause you know your fortun
And any time you so desire
There's a man that you can hire
Telling every single one of me
If I could live on Easy Street
I wouldn't want no job today
On the sunny side of the street
