Well, I was born on a Sunday, on Thursday I had me a job |
|
I was born on a Sunday, by Thursday I was workin' out on the job |
|
I ain't never had no day off since I learned right from wrong |
|
Said I was bad, I did something to her head |
|
Mama said, I was bad, I did something to her head |
|
And poppa threw me out, ooh, said, "I gotta earn my own way" |
|
I ain't never been in trouble |
|
I ain't got the time |
|
I don't mess around with magic, child |
|
What I got is mine |
|
Whatever you say, Lord, well, that's what I'm gonna do |
|
Whatever you say, well, that's what I'm gonna do |
|
'Cause I'm the working man, Lord, I do the job for you |
|
I ain't never been in trouble |
|
I ain't got the time |
|
I don't mess around with magic, child |
|
What I got is mine |
|
Every Friday, well, that's when I get paid |
|
Don't take me on Friday, Lord, 'cause that's when I get paid |
|
Let me die on Saturday night, ooh, before Sunday gets my head |
