Lyrics

Go to work and make a dollar Feeling blue just like my collar Got a boss that likes to holler Can I take a break? Uncle Sam takes from my paycheck Never lets me call a rain check Have you paid off all your debt yet? Can I get away? I gotta make my way, got no choice and I gotta work all day, to earn a living Monday morning and I'm back again It's all the same and nothing ever changes Sick and tired of the same old thing In the same old swing, with the same exchanges Come payday, I will feel good for a day Far away from my job and from my place Go to work and make a dollar Feeling blue just like my collar Got a boss that likes to holler Can I take a break? Uncle Sam takes from my paycheck Never lets me call a rain check Have you paid off all your debt yet? Can I get away? I don't need the world, all the diamonds and the pearls I just want to vent and someone else to pay my rent
