Payday
Verse 1
Down here my steps grow weary, and the road gets rough and long,
Sometimes I think I'm all alone, Yet I still carry on,
For a brighter day is coming, and it thrills my heart to know,
There'll be a payday at the end of the road.
Chorus
There'll be a payday at the end of the road,
When I'm walkin' down a street of pure gold,
I'll have a crown to wear,
Beyond compare,
Put on a long, white robe,
There'll be a payday, at the end of the road.
Verse 2
Some folks are plannin' futures, as they search for earthly gain,
They're busy building hopes and dreams,
But it all will be in vain,
So I'm layin' up my treasure,
And I'm workin' my way home,
I'll have my payday at the end of the road.
