PAT BENATAR - PAYIN' THE COST TO BE THE BOSS lyrics

rate me

You act like you wanna listen when I'm talkin' to you

You think you oughta do baby, anything you wanna do

You must be crazy baby

You just gotta be, outta your mind

As long as I'm payin' the bills

I'm payin' the cost to be the boss

I'll drink if I wanna, and play a little poker too

I don't want to hear nothin' from ya

As long as I'm takin' care of you

As long as I'm workin' baby, payin' all the bills

I don't want no mouth from you 'bout the way I'm supposed to live

You must be crazy baby

You just gotta be, outta your mind

As long as I'm footin' the bill

I'm payin' the cost to be the boss

Now that you got me huh, you act like you're ashamed

You don't act like my man - you're just usin' my name

I'm gonna have all the money baby

I don't want no back talk

You don't like how I'm doin'

You can pick up your things and walk

You must be crazy baby

You just gotta be, outta your mind

As long as I'm payin' the bills

I'm payin' the cost to be the boss
