Keep Your Day Job

Still got to work that eight hour day
Whether you like that job or not
You'd better keep it on ice
While you're lining up your long shot

Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job, whatever they say
Keep you day job, don't give it away
Keep your day job 'till your night job pays

Steady boys study that eight day hour
Never underrate that paycheck power
By now you know that the face on your dollar
Got a thumb on it's nose and
A hand on your collar

Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job, whatever they say
Keep you day job, don't give it away
Keep your day job 'till your night job pays

Daddy may drive a V-8 'Vet
Mama may bathe in champagne yet
God bless the child that's got his own stash
Nine to five and a place to crash

Which is to say, hey hey

Keep your day job, whatever they say
Keep you day job, don't give it away
Keep your day job 'till your night job pays

Keep your day job, whatever they say
Keep you day job, don't give it away
Keep your day job 'till your night job pays

Keep your day job, whatever they say
Keep you day job, don't give it away
Keep your day job 'till your night job pays
