A
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
GD
I can barely make it through the week
A
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
GD
But right now I can't make ends meet, no
A
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
GD
Gotta get a break from that same old same old
A
I need a chance just to get away
GD
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Coro:
AG
Don't need nothin' but a good time
DA
How can I resist
AG
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
DA
And it don't get better than this
A
They say I spend my money on women and wine
GD
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
A
I'm really sorry about the shape I'm in
GD
I just like my fun every now and then
A
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
GD
Gotta get a break from that same old same old
A
I need a chance just to get away
GD
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Coro
AAG
You see I raise a toast to all of us
DA
Who are breakin' our backs every day
AG
If wantin' the good life is such a crime
DA
Lord, then put me away
Here's to ya
