Payday
The Main Squeeze Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It’s gonna be a good day
Only had twenty dollars, but I just got paid
It’s gonna be a good day
Only had twenty dollars, but I just got paid

Woke up this morning
With a great big smile on my face
I've been head down grindin’ hard for weeks
but now it's time for play
Long days keep me tied up on string
I just need a little self-care
Spend some time on me

It’s gonna be a good day
Only had twenty dollars, but I just got paid
It’s gonna be a good day
Only had twenty dollars, but I just got paid
Gonna spend some cash today

Ooo finally cashed that
Hey brotha won't you pass that
Ain't nothing like seeing green in bank and a full gas tank, you know what I'm saying
Now I'm feeling good and we're just getting started
All cleaned up, headed downtown
Music up loud and the top down
I worked hard for a little show-off

I don't need it, but you can't put a price on a feeling
I don't need it, but you can't put a price on a
You can't put price on a
You can't put a price on a good day

I only had twenty dollars, but I just got paid
Ooo, it’s gonna be a good day, good day yea
Only had twenty dollars, but I
Im gonna buy something nice for me
Ohh it's gonna be

Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah




Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Good day, good day, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
