I just got paid today
Got me a pocket full of change
I just got paid today
I got me a pocket full of change
If you believe like working hard all day
Just step in my shoes and take my pay

I was born my papa's son
When I hit the ground I was on the run
I had one glad hand and the other behind
You can have yours, just give me mine
When the hound dog barking in the black of the night
Stick my hand in my pocket, everything's all right

I just got paid today
Got me a pocket full of change
I said, black sheep black
Do you got some wool?
Yes, I do and my bag is full
It's the root of all evil and you know it's the rest but it's way behind of what's second best
