(Rafferty/Egan)

Got to get back to the telephone,
Make some money from a complete unknown.
I know everything that Ive got to say,
I know cause Im a good businessman.

I can make you rich, I can make you a name,
Promise you the world if youll play my game.
If you dont want to play it, dont bother me.
Thats why Im a good businessman.

A good businessman, a good businessman,
A good businessman, a good businessman.

If I find that you aint got no trust in me,
Then its time to use my psychology.
I can change your mind, I can turn you around,
I know cause Im a good businessman.

Let me tell you now, I dont need your respect,
Seems to me theres one thing that you forget:
I aint in this business to be friends with you,
Thats why Im a good businessman.

A good businessman, a good businessman,
A good businessman, a good businessman.

A good businessman, a good businessman,
A good businessman, a good businessman.
