Sunday
Racket County The Lacs & Hard Target Lyrics

Caught a fish on Monday
Started off the week with a successful fishing trip

By Tuesday the scales be gone
Didn't waste any time cleaning and preparing the fish

Wednesday I'm gettin′ fired again
This person has a history of losing jobs

From a job that I don't want (So fuck Thursday)
Dislikes the job so much that the mere mention of it ruins the day

Friday I'll have a drink with my friends
Relaxes with friends after a long week

Saturday I'll be drinkin' alone
Spends some time to himself enjoying some drinks

But don′t you call me on Sunday
Asks that they not be disturbed on their day off

(Yeah, yeah) Sunday I'll be stayin′ home
Plans to stay home all day Sunday

And you can tell my boss I ain't comin′ in today
Calls in sick

I been workin' overtime and I'm feelin′ like a slave
Tired of working long hours

′Cause I punch in, punch out, and my time has run out
Feels like they are stuck in a routine that is going nowhere

But this time I'm runnin′ out like money in my bank account
Leaving the job for good

Me work all day at this job we slave
Feels like a slave to the job

Government got hell to pay (Got hell to pay)
Believes the government will have to answer for their mistreatment of workers

So we drink all day,
Uses alcohol to cope with the stress of the job

Lord forgive my ways but you know
Asks for forgiveness for their actions

That will never change (Will never change)
Admits that they will always struggle with their vices

But this for all the times I been waitin' to took
Finally taking a day off to do something they enjoy

My boss think I′m comin' back but I′m here baitin' a hook
Boss expects them to return to work, but they are spending the day fishing

I got my fishin' pole, cold beer, baby I′m good
Has everything they need for a relaxing day of fishing

You think I′m comin' back to work, you can wait for the hook, I′m like
Has no intention of going back to work anytime soon

Any overpass or any shady bank
Willing to fish anywhere

I'm just lookin′ for a cast for these Louisiana Pinks
Fishing for specific type of fish found in Louisiana

I'm gonna hook 'em in the lip and pull ′em until they flip
Determined to catch as many fish as possible

Or at least catch a buzz with Sailor Jerry every trip
Also using alcohol to relax and have a good time

That′s my road dog, me, him and Uncle Jack
Fishing trip companions are close friends and family members

And we brought some chicken livers if we want some butter cats
Prepared with food to attract a certain type of fish

Hope he don't give me the axe like I was a lumber jack
Hopes that they will not lose their job

′Cause I need that check for booze and bait
Needs the money from the job to support their fishing and drinking habits

Plus I paid for offshore I got a cruise to make
Has already invested money in a future fishing trip

And like a weddin' invite they told me save the date
Excited about the upcoming fishing trip

So like a DMV line my job can wait, because I just
Sees no reason to prioritize work over fun

I'm a skip a day of work and go fishin' fan
Prefers fishing to working

Like to roll through the week and creep with no plan
Prefers to live in the moment and not have a set schedule

I'm a white trash boy that don't give a damn
Does not care what others think about them

′Bout nothin' but my Evinrude takin′ me out
Loves boating and fishing with their Evinrude boat motor

No doubt boss man's probably hatin' me out
Boss probably dislikes their behavior and absence from work

Came home from the river passed out on the couch
Got home from fishing and was too tired to do anything else

Woke up scaled my fish and started guttin′ him out
Immediately started cleaning and preparing the fish for cooking

I love throwin′ out the Zebco waitin' for the line drops
Loves the anticipation of catching a fish

Chillin′ in the sunshine pumpin' on the pine tops
Relaxing in the sun and listening to music

I was told I could shoot for the stars
Was taught to aspire for great things

Cold 190 proof now we′re finishin' jars
Now focused on enjoying the simple things in life, like drinking moonshine

Sunday I'll be stayin′ home
Plans on relaxing and staying home all day Sunday
