A Job Ain't Nuthin' But Work Lyrics - Big Daddy Kane

When you work, sometimes it's wet 

And when you sweat you're gonna get wet 

You're gonna get wet (OW!) 

Work it, oh come on now, work it, ow 

Now work, come on work it, ow 

(You're gonna get wet) 

Work it, once agin come on now, ow 

Oh, oh, oh, oh now 

[Verse 1] 

I was the one to say I'd get the job done, I did it and got with it 

I must admit it was well fitted 

A piece of the pie would be fly 

Instead of a crumb for a bum, uh I gotta get some 

But I don't wanna be a second hand, middle man 

I wanna take a grand stand and 

Makin' the cash flow grow 

Pullin' myself outta the dirt 

And a job ain't nothin' but work 

[Hook 1 with various ad-libs] 

WORK! 

A job ain't nothin' but work 

WORK! WORK! 

A job ain't nothin' but work 

WORK! WORK!

[Verse 2] 

Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money got get me 

To get paid in this trade 

And I believe that I can acheive 

To make ends meet like a hair weave 

Survivin' in this economy people in the wold wanna be 

Stayin' in the upper class so you're the path 

The rich gets the most and the porr gets so little 

And only money love can make it in the middle 

I can't let life get the best of me 

I gotta take, take control of my own destiny 

Control what I hold and of course be the boss of myself 

No one else will bring my wealth 

I gotta hit them streets to make ends meet 

So just bust the style of a hustler 

Runnin' scam so damn many people will probably get hurt 

And a job ain't nothing but work

[Hook 2 with various ad-libs] 

Workin' everyday 

All the damn week 

A job ain't nothin' but work to me 

Workin' everyday 

On the subway 

A job ain't nothin' but work to me 

A job ain't nothin' but work 

[Verse 3] 

No more workin' overtime 

You get your's and I'll get mine 

I won't stop at any cause 

I wont stop till I'm the boss 

[Hook 2 with various ad-libs] 

[Verse 4] 

Straight outta the ghetto 

None of the Beverly Hills or Flushing Meadows 

I made it this far had to gamble, scramble, ramble 

Ain't no shame in my game 

And I came through like a double bread 

But still there's more here 

I'm not the greedy I'm the needy, seekin' that financial status 

That where my pockets will be the fattest 

I'm not gonna be employed when times are hard 

I'm so against workin' I wouldn't even take a blowjob 

I'd rather do my own thing 

I gotta be the one in charge 

To make myself live large 

A J-O-B is not for me, I don't want no parts of it 

So take this obe and shove it
