[Intro: Michael]
Sounds good, feels good
[Verse 1: Luke, All]
She maxed her credit cards and don't got a job
She pays the gas with all the change in her car
It's not the end of the road
Yeah, we've all been there before
And it goes, oh (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's walkin' home 'cause he can't pay for the bus
He needs a dollar but he ain't got enough
It's not the end of the world
Yeah, we've all been there before
And it goes, oh (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus: All]
Hey, everybody
We don't have to live this way
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
So what you say, everybody?
Gotta live it up today
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
[Post-Chorus: All]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2: Michael, Ashton, All]
Don't have your rent and it's the first of the months (Where's my money?)
Your bank account has got insufficient funds
We can't afford to give up
We gotta make our own luck
And it goes oh (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Work every weekend just to get out of town (I gotta get outta here)
Everyone says that you'll just turn back around
And what's ironic to me, the ones that don't ever leave
Think that they know (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus: All]
Hey, everybody
We don't have to live this way
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
So what you say, everybody?
Gotta live it up today
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
[Post-Chorus: All]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Breakdown: All]
Hey, everybody
We don't have to live this way
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
(Get paid, get paid)
[Chorus: All, Ashton]
So what you say, everybody?
Gotta live it up today (Today, today)
We can all get some
Yeah, we can all get paid
[Outro: All, Ashton]
Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey
Gotta live it up today
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah, we don't have to live this way
