Original songs, all night

Clock out Friday with a check that's already spentLight bill, phone bill, half of what I owe on rentGas light on in a Chevy with a cracked windshieldGranddaddy's Bible on the dash like a shield
And the man on the radio says the world's going wrongBut I've got my mama on the phone and my baby's favorite song
I'm broke by Friday, rich by SundayAin't got much, but I got my familyCornbread, collards and a table full of loveAin't got a dollar, but I got enoughPockets empty, but my heart is running overBroke by Friday, rich by Sunday
Sunday morning, the whole block smells like smokeUncle on the grill telling the same old jokeLittle cousins in the yard and the old folks on the porchAunt Denise singing gospel like she's getting paid for it
And the man on the TV says we need a little moreBut I've got everything I need right here through the screen door
Banjo and voice, drums drop out
Granddaddy used to say "count what you can't spend"The ones who show up and the ones who come back againSo I count 'em every Sunday at the end of the dayAnd I'm the richest man in the county, anyway
Full band, everybody singing
Rich by Sunday
