Paychecks And Longnecks

(album: Son Of A - 2021)

So you a hard hat man, workin that jack ham'
Early in the A.M. busting up rock
Got that hell hot shining, but you ain't whining
Just watching that time on the clock
Another week, 'nother forty, no break, no glory
Just a little more dust on them boots
Got that work shirt soaked
Doing what most folks wouldn't do

But them paychecks buy longnecks
And them longnecks getcha feeling good
And feeling good gives you swagger
And them moves like Jagger
With your pretty girl on the hardwood
Ya take it to the bank, tell the teller, "Thanks"
Put a little in the tank then ya take it to the bar
Where them paychecks buy longnecks
That make a hard week a little less hard
Yeah, they do

So you've done had 'nuff cause you got passed up
Another kiss-ass got the job with the raise
Now you wanna hit something, tell the boss
Whatcha think with one flip of the bird
But ya can't 'cause you know you'll get fired
And beer's hard to drink when you can't buy it

Paychecks buy longnecks
And them longnecks getcha feeling good
And feeling good gives you swagger
And them moves like Jagger
With your pretty girl on the hardwood
Ya take it to the bank, tell the teller, "Thanks"
Put a little in the tank then ya take it to the bar
Where them paychecks buy longnecks
That make a hard week a little less hard
Yeah

Another week, 'nother forty
No break, no glory
Just a little more dust on them boots

But them paychecks buy longnecks
And them longnecks getcha feeling good
And feeling good gives you swagger
And them moves like Jagger
With your pretty girl on the hardwood
Ya take it to the bank, tell the teller, "Thanks"
Put a little in the tank then ya take it to the bar
Where them paychecks buy longnecks
That make a hard week a little less hard

Raise 'em up now
