UB40 - All I Want To Do 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 ain't good for my health
Get old, get tired, get put on the shelf
While 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, getting further behind
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
