I work each day from nine to five down on the killin' floor    I drag myself home half alive, next day I go back for more    The way you treat me sometimes baby I swear that you're gonna be    Hangin' with these sides of beef in the cold room wait and see       CHORUS    Until then I'm just working and payin' my dues    It's no sin I'm just working and payin' my dues    Playing and singing the blues    I ain't got that much too loose       I use to work the mine for coal today and nearly every day    Staying in a dark hole just to make my hard earn pay    And when I get home you put me down much lower than the deepest shaft    One of these days, I'll drag you down that hole and you'll never be coming back       REPEAT CHORUS       One of these days I'll be a millionaire, I'm going to take the money and run    One of these days I'll be a millionaire, I'm going to take it with a knife and gun    Well if you see me down in Vegas baby don't forget to give me a wave    I'll leave some change by the poolside honey, so you can't say I never gave       REPEAT CHORUS
