[Verse 1]
Wake up in the morning
Got no food in the fridge
Empty bottles on the floor
And an ache in my head

[Verse 2]
Gotta walk to work
'Cause there's no gas in the tank
Got no money in my wallet
Or money in the bank

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Right when I think
I'm 'bout to break down (break down)
Every couple of weeks
Everything turns around

[Chorus]
'Cause it's payday (payday)
Everything's alright
Spending every dollar
Like it's Saturday night

Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Gonna drink it all in
'Til it's Friday at five
And they pay me again

[Post-Chorus 1]
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Yeah, it's payday (payday)

[Verse 3]
A week flies by
Goin' meet the boys at the bar
Straight to slammin' back the Jack
And taking girls and guitars
[Verse 4]
Go to pay my tab
'Cause they're closin' at 1
But it's hard to pay your bills
With "insufficient funds"

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ain't got no money
I can throw down (throw down)
'Til my buddy Jimmy says
He's buyin' this round

[Chorus]
'Cause it's payday (payday)
Everything's alright
Spending every dollar
Like it's Saturday night

Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Gonna drink it all in
'Til it's Friday at five
And they pay me again

[Post-Chorus 2]
It's payday
[Verse 5]
Wake up in the morning
Got no food in the fridge
Empty bottles on the floor
And a thump in my head

[Bridge]
But's it's payday
Yeah, it's payday

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Everything's alright
Spending every dollar
Like it's Saturday night

Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Gonna drink it all in
'Til it's Friday at five
And they pay me again

[Outro]
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
Yeah, it's payday (payday)
