Keb Mo Soon As I Get Paid Lyrics

Soon As I Get Paid Lyrics

Ring a ling with the telephone

Is the man of the house at home?

Your master card is over due

Mr. Mo we need a payment from you

Right now, right now, right away



Look here

I ain't got nothing to send you today

But I'ma give you all your money

Soon as I get paid

Soon as I get paid



Well, now the joint was jumping

It was Saturday night

Her hair was long

And the dress was tight



I looked at her

She looked at me

And the champagne stared flowing

To a quarter to three, yeah yeah, oh yeah

To quarter to three



Look Mr Bartender

I'm gonna make it okay

I'll give you all your money

Soon as I get paid

Soon as I get paid



Monday morning, money gone

It's a dog gone shame

Don't worry, I get you straight, you'll be fine

You know what, you'll get yours, when I get mine



Uh, whoa, oh, got a letter from the IRS

Your tax return is a terrible mess

We want our money, we don't like to wait

Please come an see us on such and such date

Right now, oh yeah, right away



Well, I ain't got nothin' to send you today

But I'ma give ya all your money

Soon as I get paid

Yeah, soon as I get paid



Well, well, soon as I get paid

Thursday and Friday evening

Soon as I get paid

Better catch me before Monday

Soon as I get paid



Oh yeah, soon as I get paid

You heard me

Soon as I get paid

Soon as I get paid
