Nice Work If You Can Get It Lyrics - Sting

The man who only lives for making money 

Lives a life that isn't necessarily sunny 

Likewise the man who works for fame 

There's no guarantee that time won't erase his name 

The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment 

Is the kind that is girl and boy meant 

Fall in love you won't regret it 

That's the best work of all if you can get it 

Holding hands at midnight 

'Neath a starry sky 

Nice work if you can get it 

And you can get it if you try 

Strolling with the one girl 

Sighing sigh after sigh 

Nice work if you can get it 

And you can get it if you try 

Just imagine someone 

Waiting at the cottage door 

Where two hearts become one 

Who could ask for anything more? 

Loving one who loves you 

And then taking that vow 

Nice work if you can get it 

And if you get it 

Oh won't you tell me how
