Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 2]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 3]
We dedicate this to these people out here getting bank
Where the **** you loose the money, it's reality
Never front on a clique that you can't evaluate
See, I got things out here I need to situate
I got a fresh ass car with some gloss paint
People walking down the street until they feet stank
I got accountants out here handling big things
As I slip into the crib with the sashay
In my room with the shark with the big tank
Don't get mad 'cause I"m doing things you just can't
[Verse 4]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 5]
My man, you need to get back like the rebate
And bitties need to step up like the home plate
My man, now what you know about the Great Lakes?
We contemplate on getting money like sweepstakes
Sipping dark grapes, party in the dark shade
You see a **** cold chilling like a Marley Marl
And bitties ride like Harley
Money make a Rico Suave, hey
Radio play the S like arcades
Everyday the holiday, so ****, stay paid
Celebrate the holidays with the money
Ain't about to pay some ****, stay away
[Verse 6]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 7]
Somebody said the radio would never ever play
Some of that Detroit Motor City foreplay
Honestly earning my dough, keeping it real y'all
Counting my cash, just showing you how the boss ball
I never thought that we would make it up this far
Gripping my cream color Cadillac, North Star
Detroit Motor City finest is who we are
[Verse 8]
This is for my ladies who get out, chill at the bar
This is for my ladies who get out, chill at the bar
When I was a young boy chilling in my daddy's nuts
All I could hear was a rhyme and dope cuts
Growing up thinking I was nothing but a glut
Another day, another buck, another slut
All I wanna do is get paid
Oak Town, don't stop, stop, stop
[Verse 9]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 10]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
What you say? Get this money
If they say, what you gon' do today?
Just say, hey, I wanna get paid
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
[Verse 11]
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
E'ry day, e'ry day, e'ry day
