Lyrics for Song: Just Got Paid
Lyrics for Album: Rancho Texicano: The Very Best Of Zz Top [2004]
I just got paid today,
Got me a pocket full of change.
Said, I just got paid today,
Got me a pocket full of change.
If you believe like workin' hard all day,
Just step in my shoes and take my pay.
I was born my papa's son,
When I hit the ground I was on the run.
I had one glad hand and the other behind.
You can have yours, just give me mine.
When the hound dog barkin' in the black of the night,
Stick my hand in my pocket, everything's all right.
I just got paid today,
Got me a pocket full of change.
Said, black sheep, black, do you got some wool?
Yes, I do, man, my bag is full.
It's the root of evil and you know the rest
But it's way ahead of what's second best.

Just Got Paid - ZZ Top
Released in 1976 on the album *Takin' Texas To The People*, "Just Got Paid" is a quintessential ZZ Top track that exemplifies the band's signature blend of blues-rock and Southern rock. The song features the trio's characteristic interplay of dual guitars, a prominent slide guitar solo, and Billy Gibbons' distinctive vocals, all delivered with a laid-back Texas swagger. As a staple of their discography, it captures the essence of their early work before the massive commercial success of *Eliminator*. The recording remains a defining example of the genre's evolution during the mid-1970s, showcasing the band's ability to craft catchy, riff-driven anthems that have endured for decades. |
