A Every morning I get up before that rooster crows Heading straight to somewhere I dont even want to go D Eggs and bacon in my belly and a Folgers coffee buzz A Good ol radar detector it protects me from the fuzz E Well, I do what I gotta do to get through working that 9 to 5 G D Its killing me but then again its keeping me alive Chorus A It puts the gas in my truck, butter on my biscuits, A couple bucks when Im itching for a scratch-off ticket D That poker makes me broker every Saturday night A I still got running water and they aint cut off the lights E Come Friday night, My friends and I start peeling off them labels G D A Working hard all week puts beer on the table A Eighteen bucks an hour and a million dollar tan Women whistle at me while Im working for the man D Making me some cold hard cash out in that summer sun A Come Friday Ill have money but by Monday Ill have none E Once the bills are paid and that bass boat tank has gone from E to F G D I fill that big ol cooler up there aint a whole lot left A Well, I got gas in my truck, butter on my biscuits, A couple bucks when Im itching for a scratch-off ticket D That poker makes me broker every Saturday night A I still got running water and they aint cut off the lights E Come Friday night, My friends and I start peeling off them labels G D Working hard all week puts the beer on the table A G D A Oh, oh, Im a simple man, yes I am G D E All I needs a few good friends and a good job, G And a good dog, maybe a woman that understands A A little gas in my truck, some butter on my biscuits, A couple bucks when Im itching for a scratch-off ticket D That poker makes me broker every Saturday night A I still got running water and they aint cut off the lights E Come Friday night, My friends and I start peeling off them labels G D Working hard all week, yeah, puts the beer on the table A D A Puts the beer on the table A Would you pass me another one of them cold cans?
