Maybe you collect or maybe you pay (whether)
A
Still got to work that eight hour day
D A E
Whether you like that job or not
D
You'd better keep it on ice
A E
While you're lining up your long shot
B D
Which is to say, hey hey, hey
A A7
Keep your day job
D D7
Don't give it away,
A A7
Keep your day job,
D D7
Whatever they say
A F#7
Keep your day job
B D E A D B7 E
'Till your night job pays.
Steady boys starting that eight day hour
Never underrate that paycheck power
By now you know that the face on your dollar
Got a thumb on its nose and a hand on your collar
Which is to say, hey, hey, hey
Chorus
Daddy may drive a Sting-Ray 'Vette
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, hey
Chorus
Sunday comes forget about work,
Ring that bell for whatever it's worth.
If you ask me, which I know you don't,
I'd tell you to do what I know you won't
Which is to say, hey, hey, hey
