Lyrics

I remember the way
 Our sainted mother
 Would sit and croon us
 Her lullaby
 She'd say, kids, there's a place
 That's like no other
 You got to get there before you die
 You don't get there
 By playing from the rule book
 You stack the aces
 You load the dice
 Mother dear
 Oh, we know you're down there listening --
 How can we follow
 Your sweet
 Advice
 To
 Easy street
 Easy street
 Where you sleep till noon
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 She'd repeat
 Easy street
 Better get there soon
 Easy street
 Easy street
 Where the rich folks play
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 Move them feet
 Move them ever-lovin' feet
 To easy street
 When you get there
 When you get there
 When you get there stay
 It ain't fair
 How we scrounge
 For three of four bucks
 While she gets
 Warbucks
 The little brat!
 It ain't fair this here life
 Is drivin' me nuts!
 While we get peanuts
 She's livin' fat!
 Maybe she holds the key
 This little lady
 To gettin' more bucks
 Instead of less
 Maybe we fix the game
 With something shady
 Where would that put us?
 Give you one guess
 Yes!
 Easy street
 Easy street
 Annie is the key
 Yes sirree
 Yes sirree
 Yes sirree
 Easy street
 Easy street
 That's where we're gonna --
 Be!
