[Verse 1]
Dm                    Gm
Anthony works in the grocery store
C                       F
Savin' his pennies for someday
Dm                Gm
Mama Leone left a note on the door
C                                 F
She said "Sonny, move out to the country"
Dm                        Gm
But workin' too hard can give you a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack
Bb                  C
You oughta know by now
Dm                        Gm
Who needs a house out in Hackensack
    C                         F
Is that all you get for your money


[Chorus]
        Bb                    C
And it seems such a waste of time
      A                    Dm
Well that's what it's all about
          Bb                   Em A
Mama, if that's movin' up then I'm  movin' out
Dm  Gm             C      F
       I'm movin' out
Dm    Gm   C    F
Ooh a ha  Mmmm


[Verse 2]
Dm                   Gm
Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beats
    C                     F
At night he becomes a bartender
            Dm                        Gm
He works at Mr. Cacciatore's down on Sullivan Street
   C                        F
Across from the medical center
             Dm                         Gm
Oh and he's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac-ac-ac-ac-ac
Bb                  C
You oughta know by now
    Dm                        Gm
And if he can't drive with a broken back
    C                           F
At least he can polish the fenders


[Chorus 2]
        Bb                      C
And if that's what you had in mind
    A                    Dm
If that's what it's all about
          Bb                   Em A
Mama, if that's movin' up then I'm  movin' out
Dm  Gm            C      F
       Oh, movin' out
Dm    Gm   C    F
Ooh a ha  Mmmm


[Verse 3]
Dm                             Gm
You should never argue with a crazy ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma
C                   F
You oughta know by now
        Dm                      Gm
You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime
    C                         F
Is that all you get for your money


[Chorus]
         Bb                   C
And it seems such a waste of time
           A                    Dm
Yeah, but that's what it's all about
          Bb                   Em A
Mama, if that's movin' up then I'm  movin' out
Dm  Gm            C      F
       Oh, movin' out
Dm    Gm   C    F
Ooh a ha  Mmmm
