          G
Breakin' out,   about to shout
Feel the need for one more round
             C
Don't you struggle, don't try to bite
You want some trouble, I'm the king of vice
                G
I'm a wreckin' ball, I'm a stingin' knife
Steal your money, gonna take your life

       D                   C
You got screamin' murder, lock up your door
Double dealin' gotta have more
Call me dirty, trash my name
C                                   F
Just tell the boys that I'm gonna be

Chorus:
 F       G
Back in business again
                      C
Back in business again
 F       G
Back in business again
                      C
Back in business again
  F       G
(Back in business)

Flesh and blood, I'm a rag and bone
A bad luck message on the telephone
Don't you worry, play my game
I'll do you a favor, put your soul for sale
Like a cannonball, goin' down the track
Need good lovin', but I want it back

I was found in trouble, they gave up on me
Teacher preaching what not to be
Call me dirty, trash my name
Just tell my boys that I'm gonna be

Chorus - x3

(Back in business)
You've read the small print in this contract,
haven't ya?
(Back in business)
Yeah, I'm the man with a shaft, haha
(Back in business)
I oughta stick it right up ya
(Back in business)
I've got you on mine
Back in business again
(and I'm lookin' for ya)
