40 Can't Pay The Bills For Me

Verse I
I just laid my sun drained body down
I've got two - good, fourteens, in the hip
That's grease for palms, to avoid some lip
The crops don't, need no, rain in this town

Bridge
Yea, come on sunshine and shine on me
Lord I'm in need of some O.T.
The boss says, that forty's - guaranteed

Chorus
Yea, forty can't pay the bills for me
Lord just hold - that rain for a week
Forty can' pay the bills for me
Forty can't pay the bills for me

Verse II
Yea, Wednesday morning done rolled around
Man that rain's the last thing - I need to see
Man that rain done blowed my check - the last three weeks
It's just my luck, the rain's comin' down.

Bridge
Yea, come on sunshine and shine on me
Lord I'm in need of some O.T.
The boss says, that forty's - guaranteed

Chorus
Yea, forty can't pay the bills for me
Lord just hold - that rain for a week
Forty can' pay the bills for me
Forty can't pay the bills for me---
