Livin' on easy street with a dog and persian cat
A-livin' on easy street, we don't need this and that
Our bills are gonna be due and the baby will soon be too
But we draw our welfare checks this week
Livin' on easy street.

Well, our old ice box is empty and the cubboard is bare of beans
We don't have a pot, we don't have a garden but we're fulfillin' our dreams
In a two room shack on a twenty-foot lot they way we live it's the perfect spot
We're living on love and we sure live cheap
Livin' on easy street.

But we draw our welfare check this week
