Artist/Band: Beach Boys
Lyrics for Song: I Just Got My Pay
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Beach Boys



Five long days and I'm tired of working
I'm going to see my boss today
In fifteen minutes I'll be on the train
'Cause I just got my pay

Now I could take and sock away my dough
And make me six percent a year
But it's not much fun to wait around for that
When I can spend it while it's here

Let's get dressed up
And see a movie

I like spending my money
And I like having a good time
Good times sure make me happy
And I'm so happy
'Cause I just got my pay

Monday morning I'm up and at it
Those last two days were good for my soul
It's time to do my working thing
I'm late so I got to roll

My take home comes to 'bout ninety-five
And my boss is giving me some praise
If it weren't for me the place would fall apart
I think I'll hit him up for a raise

Let's get undressed
And climb in bed too

I like spending my money
And I like having a good time
Good times sure make me happy
And I'm so happy
'Cause I just got my pay


About I Just Got My Pay

"I Just Got My Pay" is a 1962 recording by The Beach Boys, marking one of the group's early contributions to the emerging surf rock genre. As a member of the band's initial lineup, Brian Wilson and his contemporaries utilized this track to explore the rhythmic complexities and vocal harmonies that would soon define their sound. The song reflects the band's focus on everyday themes and the California lifestyle during the early 1960s, preceding their more famous work on albums like *Pet Sounds* and *Surfing with the Moon*. Released during a pivotal era for American pop music, the recording showcases the group's ability to blend instrumental surf textures with melodic pop structures. While not always highlighted in their later discography, the track stands as an important artifact of the band's formative years, demonstrating their technical proficiency and creative direction before they achieved widespread commercial success. It remains a testament to the musical evolution of The Beach Boys from their local roots to their status as pioneers of the harmony-driven rock format.
