Soon As I Get Paid Lyrics - Keb Mo

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
