Lyrics
Chorus:
(Yeah) Well, I've been thinking about drinking all day long.
The work week's been tough and it's been hard to get along.
Yeah the boss he's been on my back, but I'm still hanging on.
I'm thinking about drinking all day long.
Verse 1:
I work so hard to earn my pay, I swear this place is going to turn me gray. Think they'll miss me when I'm gone, I think I'm going to tie one on.
I'm thinking about drinking all day long.
Back to Chorus
Verse 2:
The weekend comes, the weekend goes, where it went nobody knows.
No time for fun and cheer.
I think I'll have another beer.
Well, I'm thinking about drinking all day long.
Back to Chorus
Verse 3:
Monday morning seems to come too soon, when I get up I can still see the moon.
Working hard is good for some, but all I want to do is get numb.
I'm thinking about drinking all day long.
Ending:
The boss he's been on my back, but I'm still hanging on.
(Yes),I'm thinking about drinking all day long (x3).
