Lyrics
I remember the way our sainted mother
Would sit and croon us our lullaby
She'd say, "Kids, there's a place that's like no other
You gotta get there before you die."
"You don't get there by playin' from the rule book
You stack the aces
You load the dice."
Mother dear, oh we know
You're down there listenin'
How can we follow
Your sweet advice to
Easy Street
Easy Street
Where you sleep 'til noon
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She'd repeat
Easy Street
Better get there soon
Easy Street
Easy Street
Where the rich folks play
Where they play, play all day
Move their feet
Move their merry, merry feet
To Easy Street
When you get there, stay
It ain't fair how we scrounge for three or four bucks
While she gets Warbucks
The little brat
It ain't fair, this here life is driving me nuts
While we get peanuts
She's living fat
Maybe she holds the key, that little lady
To gettin' more bucks
Instead of less
Maybe we fix the game with something shady
Where does that put us?
Oh, tell her
Give you one guess
This
Easy Street
Easy Street
Annie is the key
Yes siree, yes siree, yes siree, yeah
Easy Street
Easy Street
That's where we're gonna be
