Work All Day Lyrics

If you work all day,
Keep the rhythm through the night
Work all night,
Keep the rhythm through the day

Tear that soul,
You'll be burnin' up bright
Got no soul,
That's fine all right

All I've ever known is true;

We'll pick it up and pack it up,
And put it in a bag
Sack it up like cinnamon
We'll get it real fast,
Until there's nothing left for/of you

K-k-keep the rhythm through the night,
Need a little money,
Keep the workin' all right
Help that soul, it'll help make you some money
Need that soul, that's fine all right

Work all day,
Keep the rhythm through the night
Work all night,
Keep the workin' all day

Tell our soul, "that's fine all right"
Sell our soul, that's fine all right

All I've ever known is true;

We'll pick it up and pack it up,
And put it in a bag
Sack it up like cinnamon
We'll get it real fast,
Until there's nothing left for/of you

Until there's nothing left of you

It's : Sell that soul you'll be burning up right, got no soul well that's fine alright.

Keep the rhythm, need a little money keep it working alright, help that soul a little help may do some right, you don't need that soul well that's fine alright.

And it is stack it up not sack it up.

I read through the lyrics in the CD to double check.

Are you sure that he says "WALKING" in:" I work all night, keep on walking, alright, becoz for me it sounds something like "I work all night, keep on reading through the day"

I work all day, keep the rhythm through the night I work all night, keep on walking, alright If you sell that soul, that's fine, alright If you sell that soul, that's fine, alright
