Come on boy, don't be such a sleepy head
Don't you know statistics show, that most folks die in bed
Life is short, then you're a long time gone
So get up boy, get up boy, don't you wanna know what's going on
Break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You can't lie dreaming in the sun all day
You gotta keep jumping till you amount to something
You gotta get out and get some pay
So break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You won't be president in that a way
You can't be reclining while the sun is shining
You gotta get out and get some pay
You gotta be in there pitchin' steady
For opportunity knocks one time, no more
When opp knocks, get up to be ready
To get up and open the door
Break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You can't lie dreaming in the sun all day
You gotta keep jumping till you amount to something
You gotta get out and get some pay
Break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You can't lie dreaming in the sun all day
Break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You can't lie dreaming in the sun all day
You gotta be in there pitchin' steady
For opportunity knocks one time, no more
When opp knocks, get up to be ready
To get up and open the door
Break it up and wake up, wake up Jacob
You can't lie dreaming in the sun all day
You gotta keep jumping till you amount to something
You gotta get out and get some pay
Wake up Jacob
Wake up Jacob
Wake up Jacob
