Текст песни Gratification - Robert B. Sherman , Richard M. Sherman

Ya call this work
Well, ain't that funny
We ain't doin' this for money
Heck, it's a regular privelege to be occupied
It's a source a pride anyone can swim
An' fish on a Saturday
Anyone can just lay down
Layin' in a hammock
Layin' in a grass
Like a lazy no good houn'

They just know that I'm soft hearted
I was barely goin' started
Now I'm givin' all a' my fun away
They keep beggin' me an' I'm generous
I mean where's the last time
You could slosh a bucket full a' wash on a mile a' fence
Look at 'em smilin' havin' a time an' all at my expence

And ya get that deep down inside gratification
Gratifyin' satisfac' pure enjoyment
From employ second time
Well, I mean that deep down inside gratification
Oh, how good ya feel when yer shoulder's to the wheel

Ya don't need nothin' cept ambition
Elbow grease fer ammunition
An' bang what a righteous glow
Ya get from honest sweat
It's a natural bet
Anyone who puts his nose to the grindstone's
Gonna get a great reward
Yer eyes'll see the glory
Of the comin' of the Lord
And ya get that shoulder's to the wheel.
