Payday Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Let's go out on the town tonight 

My pockets are heavy with loot 

And get drunk and blasted 

And loud in your dress of blue 

I've been living from hand to mouth 

It must be three or four weeks 

And I can tell you one thing, Jack 

You listen when your stomach speaks 

I feel good just like I knew that I would 

And all on account of that wine that I bought today 

And I'm smiling so sweet at every little girl that I meet 

Some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

It feels so funny having all of this money 

I think I feel like dancing the night away 

I think I feel like dancing the night away 

I got me this long legged girl 

To help me to spend my dough 

Her heart as big as your mama's stove 

And her body like Brigitte Bardot 

I'm all ready for some rock n' roll 

With the guitar turned up loud 

And the fancy footwork 

And the drunk down, drugged up crowd 

I feel good just like I knew that I would 

And all on account of that wine that I bought today 

And I'm smiling so sweet at every little girl that I meet 

And some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way
