I got my paycheck today
I think I’ll spend it like a crazy fool
Or I’ll give it all away
Something like the golden rule
And my paycheck ain’t hay
But somehow I just don’t seem to care
Ever since she went away
And left my little house so cold and bare
And I won’t tell ’em at the bank
What I’m gonna do with all my dough
I’ll just smile and tell ‘em thanks
For it’s better than they shouldn’t know
Then I’ll go and have a drink
At a little place where I can sit and think
Cause my baby went away
And left me here on my payday
**Paaaaaaaaday was never like this
Paaaaaaaaday, but where is my happiness?
I don’t know!
