There's A Little Boy Out In The Driveway
His Basketball In Hand
Saying Daddy Could We Play A Little One On One
You Pat Him On The Back And Say Not Now Son
I'm A Busy Man

His Sister's Out On The Sidewalk
Setting Up A Lemonade Stand
Hey Daddy Don't You Want To Buy A Glass From Me
You Say Maybe Later, Can't You See I'm A Busy Man

You Got To Go, Got To Run
Hit It Hard And Get It Done
Everyone Can See You're Going Far
You Got Responsibilities
A Crazy Schedule That You Keep
And When You Say That Time's A-wasting
You Don't Know How Right You Are
Busy Man

There's A Woman In The Bedroom Crying
Saying I Thought We Had Plans
You Say Honey I'm Sorry I'll Make It Up
When The Job Slows Down And I'm Not Such
A Busy Man

You Got To Go, Got To Run
Hit It Hard And Get It Done
Everyone Can See You're Going Far
You Got Responsibilities
A Crazy Schedule That You Keep
And When You Say That Time's A-wasting
You Don't Know How Right You Are
Busy Man

Have You Ever Seen A Headstone With These Words
"If Only I Had Spent More Time At Work"

There's A Call One Day From The Office
They Need You Down In Birmingham
You Say No Way, The Weekend's Mine
I Got Plans With The Kids And A Date With My Wife
I'm A Busy Man

You Got To Go, Got To Run
Take A Break And Have Some Fun
Those That Love You Most
Say You've Come Far
Got Some New Priorities
In That Schedule That You Keep
And When You Say That Time's A-wasting
Now You Know How Right You Are
Busy Man
