I’m Just Movin’
BABE
You got your green grapes -- forty-twenty-two
And your reds is forty-twenty-three
You got your Granny Smith -- seventeen
Australian Navel -- twelve
I tell you it just comes to me
I got my right hand ready on the register
Use my left to scan the groceries

And when I "P.L.U." it
For the flowers or the fruit
I never have to look at the keys
Please! I'm just movin'

OTHER CHECKERS
Pedal, scan, scan, code, scan

OTHER CHECKERS

BABE
Way more fun than some high-techer
Workin' as a checker
And movin', movin', movin'!
+OTHER CHECKERS
Any coupons?

When I got out of high school way back when
Didn't want no secretary job
I heard the grocery callin' me, callin' even then
And I still love it, though the work is hard
You see these part-time girls work slow all week
Then Friday night go dancin' for their kick
But here is where I'm dancin'
And my mood I'll be enhancin'
I even come in days I feel sick
And quick -- I'm just movin'

OTHER CHECKERS

BABE
Way more fun than some high-techer
Workin' as a checker and movin', movin', movin'!
Well, sure my feet get tired
Got my aches and pains
From the time I was eighteen
I had the varicose veins
But I put on my support hose
And my Doctor Scholl's shoes
Head on down to Treasure Island
Dance away my blues
By just movin'

(DANCE BREAK)

So I don't want no office, no sirree
Give me the grocery
No matter how hectic it gets
I'll me movin', movin', movin', movin'

+OTHER CHECKERS
Movin', movin', movin', movin'
Movin', movin', movin', movin'
Babe and her Treasure Island superettes!
