Paid my dues
Shined my shoes
Showed them my devotion
I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion

Wore my suit
On the long commute
Stuck in the commotion
I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta g-get
Gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion

I'm tired of all the big wigs
'Cause they all got it made
Do I need to go and testify
Just to get myself some pay

My little family business
Can only go so far
When I'm doing overtime
On the l-I-double-r!

Happy wife
Happy life
Get my baby to the ocean
I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta g-get
Gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion

Ooh yeah, oh
Oh, I gotta get it
Oh, I gotta get a promotion
I gotta get a promotion
I gotta get a promotion
Oh, I gotta
Gotta
Gotta
Oh, I gotta get it, get a promotion
I gotta get a promotion
Oh, get my baby to the ocean
Get my baby to the ocean
Welcome to the family business, you be the witness!
Oh, goodbye to the guy
Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good
Good, good, good
Good, good, good, goodbye!
I need a little luck tonight!

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta g-get
Gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get a promotion
