Stand Up

My telephone wakes me in the morning -- 
have to get up to answer the call. 
So I think I'll go back to the family 
where no one can ring me at all. 
Living this life has its problems 
so I think that I'll give it a break. 
Oh, I'm going back to the family 
`cos I've had about all I can take. 


Master's in the counting house 
counting all his money. 
Sister's sitting by the mirror -- 
she thinks her hair looks funny. 
And here am I thinking to myself 
just wond'ring what things to do. 


I think I enjoyed all my problems 
Where I did not get nothing for free. 
Oh, I'm going back to the family -- 
doing nothing is bothering me. 
I'll get a train back to the city 
that soft life is getting me down. 
There's more fun away from the family 
get some action when I pull into town. 


Everything I do is wrong, 
what the hell was I thinking? 
Phone keeps ringing all day long 
I got no time for thinking. 
And every day has the same old way 
of giving me too much to do.
