Making Your Blues Pay Rent (Acoustic)
Worked a 60 hour week and then some
It's time to drink a bottled beer in the sun
There ain't a trouble in the world that's gonna get me down
Got some chicken marinade in the kitchen
Got the grill all fired up and I'm itching
To let the weekend chase away my frown
'Cause it's a few more days 'til I'm back to the grind
A handful of nights until it's clockin' in time
So I'mma make sure that every minute I get is spent
Making my blues pay rent
Every day, it's all weighing on me
But I ain't gotta let it take my life for free
The blues are gonna get ya; I guarantee that
Just you make sure that they pay you back!
So no matter how hard of a week you're sent,
Get home- and start making your blues pay rent
The kids are playing in the yard and their laughter
It's got the flavour of a life ever after
And I'll be sure to give thanks to the Man Upstairs
Playing fetch with the dog on the town field
Take a nap with the cat on the windshield
I can feel it all washing away my cares
'Cause it's a few more days 'til I'm back to the grind
A handful of nights until it's clockin' in time
So I'mma make sure that every minute I get is spent
Making my blues pay rent
Every day, it's all weighing on me
But I ain't gotta let it take my life for free
The blues are gonna get ya; I guarantee that
Just you make sure that they pay you back!
So no matter how hard of a week you're sent,
Get home- and start making your blues pay rent
The world that we live in, it's so unforgiving
It's cruel and it hurts your heart
So once in awhile, kick back and just smile
That's how you make a sta
At making your blues pay rent
Every day, it's all weighing on me
But I ain't gotta let it take my life for free
The blues are gonna get ya; I guarantee that
Just you make sure that they pay you back!
So no matter how hard of a week you're sent,
Get home- and start making your blues pay rent
Making your blues pay rent
Start making your blues pay rent
It's time to drink a bottled beer in the sun
There ain't a trouble in the world that's gonna get me down
Got some chicken marinade in the kitchen
Got the grill all fired up and I'm itching
To let the weekend chase away my frown
'Cause it's a few more days 'til I'm back to the grind
A handful of nights until it's clockin' in time
So I'mma make sure that every minute I get is spent
Making my blues pay rent
Every day, it's all weighing on me
But I ain't gotta let it take my life for free
The blues are gonna get ya; I guarantee that
Just you make sure that they pay you back!
So no matter how hard of a week you're sent,
Get home- and start making your blues pay rent
The kids are playing in the yard and their laughter
It's got the flavour of a life ever after
And I'll be sure to give thanks to the Man Upstairs

Making your blues pay rent
Start making your blues pay rent
