Landlord said this morning to me, "Gimme your key.
This flat ain't free. I can't get no rent out of you.
Pack up your things and skidoo, you."

I've been waiting til my Bill comes home.
He's ma honey from the honeycomb.
He’ll have money cause he told me so this morning

Landlord said I give you lots of show.
I want my rooms or else I want my dough.
I’ll wait for Bill. If he don’t pay, why, out you go.

Because it’s moving day--moving day.
Rip that carpet up from off the floor.
Take your oil stove out of the door.

It’s moving day. Pack your folding bed
and get away. If you spent every cent, you
can live out in a tent. It’s moving day.

Bill came in all covered with snow. I said hello. Give me some
dough. Here’s the landlord waiting for rent. Bill said I ain’t
got a cent. Here’s two chickens that I brought for stew.
Landlord, take ‘em for the rent was due. Landlord said my
chicken coop was robbed this morning. Two black hens
are missing from my coop. Them’s the ones you just brought in
for soup. Get busy and get your things down on that stoop.

Landlord said this morning to me
Give me your key, this flat ain't free
I can't get no rent out of you
Pack up your rags and skidoo

I said, wait until my Bill comes home
He's my honey from the honeycomb
He'll have money 'cause he told me so this morning

Because it's moving day, moving day
Rip the carpet up off of the floor
Take your oil stove and out the door

It's moving day, pack your folding bed and get away
If you've spent every cent you can live out in a tent
Because it's moving day

Because it's moving day, moving day
Rip the carpet up off of the floor
Take your oil stove and out the door

It's moving day, pack your folding bed and get away
If you've spent every cent you can live out in a tent
Because it's moving day

Bill came in all covered with snow
I said hello, gimme some dough
Here's the landlord waitin' for rent
Bill says, i ain't got a cent

Here's two chickens i brought home for stew
Landlord, take them for the rent that's due
Landlord said, my chicken coop was robbed this morning

And so it's moving day, moving day
Rip the carpet up off of the floor
Take your oil stove and out the door

It's moving day, pack your folding bed and get away
If you've spent every cent you can live out in a tent
Because it's moving day
