Taxman Woman Lyrics

I wake up in the morning I'm thinking of you
In Dollars and Cents in high heel shoes

I start to think and the headache goes boom
I'm counting the bills that are stacked to the moon

The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever (on the sunny side)
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better (God knows that I tried)

Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's only money
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's so hard honey
To keep up with you

I work twice as hard what else can I do
To make up the part that's been taken by you

If it wasn't for you I would be rich
But instead I'm a poor son of a bitch

The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever (on the sunny side)
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better (Got knows that I tried)

Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's only money
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's so hard honey
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see that it ain't funny
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's so hard honey
To keep up with you

I wake up in the morning I'm thinking of you
In Dollars and Cents in high heel shoes
 
I start to think and the headache goes boom
I'm counting the bills that are stacked to the moon
 
The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever (on the sunny side)
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better (God knows that I tried)
 
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's only money
Taxman woman I keep running
Can't you see it's so hard honey
To keep up with you

I work twice as hard what else can I do
To make up the part that's been taken by you
 
If it wasn't for you I would be rich
But instead I'm a poor son of a bitch
 
The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever (on the sunny side)
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better (Got knows that I tried)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
