I'm dressing up in style for in a little while
I'm gonna ride into town
And every cowboy pal I know will lift his heel and toe
When payday rolls around.
And so I'm feelin' fine because there's lots of time
Until we're all homeward bound
To work and slave with cattle, sweat and swear and battle
Until payday rolls around.

What does a cowboy do when all of his work is through?
Just what I'm going do now.
With money to spend and jingle, off into town to mingle
With all my friends, I allow.
And maybe a blue-eyed gal will wait for her bronco pal
To ride o'er the hot desert ground.
True heart and golden hair know that I'll soon be there
When payday rolls around.

I'm dressing up in style for in a little while

And every cowboy pal I know will lift his heel and toe
When payday rolls around.
And so I'm feelin' fine because there's lots of time
Until we're all homeward bound
To work and slave with cattle, sweat and swear and battle
Until payday rolls around.

And so I'm feelin' fine because there's lots of time
Until we're all homeward bound
To work and slave with cattle, sweat and swear and battle
Until payday rolls around.
