Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
  Down on the corner there's a grocery boy stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams
  Someone's cleanin' up the offices, one window burnin' in the dark
  Somebody's cryin' is there any way in hell
  To light a comet from a single spark
  Workin' so hard I can't remember much about the freedom I been workin' for
  Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes
  And saw a million wide open doors
  Ya tell me put a little money away, well every dog will have his day in time
  Well I been slavin' like a dog and I got nothin' to show ya
  But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes
  
  Chorus:
  
  I want a piece, a piece of the action, give me a shot at the real thing
  I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action
  Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
  Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
  
  Been livin' just like my old man did and neither once of us could get it right
  Punchin' in when the day begins and punchin' out the local boys at night
  There's someone leanin' on a peelin' porch
  And someone leavin' on a silver plane
  And I finally know the man I'd rather be
  Girl I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name
  
  (chorus)
  
  They hand you a paycheck every week and steal a piece of your soul every day
  An' I don't need no gold watch in fifty years, baby let's be golden today
  
  (chorus repeats 2x...)
  
  (chorus)
