Get Drunk and Be Somebody

Yeah, the big boss man, he likes to crack that whip

I ain't nothing but a number on his time card slip

I give him forty hours and a piece of my soul

Puts me somewhere at the bottom of his totem pole

Hell, I don't even think he knows my name

Hey, all week long I'm a real nobody

But I just punched out and it's paycheck Friday

Weekend's here, good God almighty

I'm gonna get drunk and be somebody (Somebody)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

My baby cuts hair at a beauty boutique

Just blowin' and goin' till she dead on her feet

They walk right in and sit right down

She gives 'em what they want and then she spins 'em around

Hey, I don't think they even know her name

All week long she's a real nobody

But I just picked her up and it's paycheck Friday

Weekend's here, good God almighty

Baby, let's get drunk and be somebody (Somebody)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We're just average people in an everyday bar

Driving from work in our ordinary cars

And I like to come here with regular Joes

Drink all you want, be the star of the show

All week long, a bunch of real nobodies

But we just punched out and it's paycheck Friday

Weekend's here, good God almighty

People, let's get drunk

Let's get drunk!

All week long we're some real nobodies

But we just punched out, it's paycheck Friday

The weekend's here, good God almighty

People, let's get drunk and be somebody

Let's get drunk!

Yeah, yeah, yeah
