If you count the overtime, it's a 40 hour grunt American dream ain't easy on a paycheck twice a month SSI FICA fedral and state tax, only thing it's good for is settin' a man
But I've got a 20 in my pocket and I'm the first round And there's a in the corner and they're gonna rock the house And them from the Skynard show, how much you wanna bet There all ready in the back shootin' pool and smokin' And we might get lucky, if we play our right Chances are I'll end up just trying to pick a fight Singing Whoa all the way home.. Yeah we'll out the lights Its a Collar Night.
I'm still in that same red brick me and Gina hunted down, Cinder shevles and the lime green sofa pull out. Been two years I've seen her leave in that corvette. When I around this dump sometimes I see why she left.
But I've been up my money, started goin' back to school and I'm learning them computers and in a year or two. I can start a little and if I get it off the ground. I can talk the into a loan for that place Gina dreamed about. And I bet she'll crawling back, I'll be sittin' here till then Drinkin' beer and throwin' and having laughs with all my friends.
Singing whoa all the why home. yeah shoot out the lights, it's a blue collar night
I came home to Gina's sweet voice out of my machine that LA sunshine is even better than I dreamed I 3 more times, called my steve I said lets go, he said I'm broke, I said your keys
I've got a 20 in my pocket and I'm gettin' the first round, And a band in the corner, they're gonna rock the house And those from the Skynard show, how much you wanna bet They're already in the shootin' pool and smokin' cigarettes. Yeah we might get lucky if we play our cards But chances are we'll end up drunk just trying to a fight Singing Whoooo all the way Yeah we'll shoot out the Its a Collar Night.
