Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna spend it yeah, 'cause I earned it, yeah
Forty hour week, ten hours overtime, sitting in traffic, working all the time
Gonna drink it yeah, make it worth it, yeah
Straight from the bank to the honky tonks, burning a hole
[Verse 2]
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Yeah, I been waiting on you since Monday
And it's work, work, work and I need a break
Won't you take my blues away?
[Verse 3]
I got cash, yeah, should I save it? No
'Cause I'm buying round like I'm crazy, two for one for the ladies
'Cause they're fine yeah, we'll be going all night
Straight from the bank to the honky tonks, burning a hole
[Verse 4]
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Yeah, I been waiting on you since Monday
And it's work, work, work and I need a break
Won't you take my blues away?
[Verse 5]
So drink it yeah, and spend it, yeah
'Cause we're climbing that ladder, punching that clock
So raise 'em up
[Verse 6]
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Yeah, I been waiting on you since Monday
And it's work, work, work and I need a break
Won't you take my blues away?
[Verse 7]
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Paycheck, won't you take my blues away?
Yeah, I been waiting on you since Monday
And it's work, work, work and I need a break
Won't you take my blues away?
[Verse 8]
Ah yeah babe
Break it down for cold one
