Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Friday, payday, Lordy, gotta get away
Had it with the wife thang,
Livin' on a shoestring
What's a poor girl gotta do
Just to have some fun?
[Verse 2]
Well, all these years without any help
Guess what, honey, clothes
Just don't wash themselves
Neither do dishes, neither does
A bathroom floor
[Verse 3]
So, now if anyone asks, not that they would
I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good
[Verse 4]
No more, what a bore, had enough
I'm out the door
Headed for a breakdown
Had it with a small town
Gonna call Lisa, gonna call Carla Sue
[Verse 5]
Well, now we're gonna let it roll
Gonna let it rip
And gonna get us a nice room
Down on the strip
Not that we gon' need it
There won't be any sleepin' tonight
[Verse 6]
So, now if anyone asks, not that they would
We'll be down in Mississsippi and up to no good
[Verse 7]
Well, hammer down, here we go
Runnin' for the riverboat
All you're gonna see is asses and elbows
Luck's about to change for these three queens
Tired of gettin' jokers, deal us up kings
[Verse 8]
Well, hammer down, here we go
Runnin' for the riverboat
All you're gonna see is asses and elbows
Luck's about to change for these three queens
Tired of gettin' jokers, deal us up kings
[Verse 9]
Snake eyes, roll the dice
Double down and hit me twice
Cashin' in the big chips
Gonna leave a big tip
Hotter than a two dollar pistol
Baby, Im on fire
[Verse 10]
So, now if anyone asks, not that they would
I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good
[Verse 11]
So, now if anyone asks, not that they would
I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good, yeah
