Lyrics:

                                                  
v
Got my first job at age sixteen
Dishwasher at Johnny's Cafe
Worked hard to get those dishes clean
After school most weekdays

Wasn't much but I loved that place
My bosses name was Mitch
Every Friday we got paid
For the weekend I was rich

chorus

Had a pocket full of presidents
Lot's of dollars but no sense
Found a way to spend every single bill
Knew I should make them last 
But they disappeared faster
Than a cold beer in my hand will
After I cashed  that paycheck
Makin' it last til the next 
Was kind of like swimming uphill
So I'd find a way to treat myself
Not worry about nothing else
Man I wish I had that money still

v

Now I work forty hours a week
In a factory by that little cafe
Got a wife and kids to feed
Bills and a mortgage to pay

Got a bonus check last payday
Had to be a computer glitch
Been a while since I felt this way
For the weekend I was rich

repeat chorus

Should've saved some for a rainy day
But I gotta tell ya
It was gone before it looked like rain
I still had my umbrella

repeat chorus
