Intro: Pay the man, you gotta pay the man Before you leave this world You got to pay the man Pay the man, everybody gotta pay the man Everybody in the whole wide world Has got to pay the man Well the senator in the fancy house He's a prince of Babylon He?s got a wife and a dog and a cadillac And people all around Got his ways and means and all he needs To keep him satisfied But before he leaves this world He got to pay the man Pay the man, you gotta pay the man Before you leave this world You got to pay the man Pay the man, everybody gotta pay the man Everybody in the whole wide world Has got to pay the man Sally had a baby It almost drove her crazy She dropped her in the river Now Sally she's a happy girl And you see her on a corner She's doing all the best she can And she whisper to you soft and low You got to pay the man Pay the man, you gotta pay the man Before you leave this world You got to pay the man Pay the man, everybody gotta pay the man Before you leave this world You got to pay the man
