She sits on her ass
He works his hands to the bone
To give her money every payday
But she wants more dinero just to stay at home
Well my friend, you gotta say

I won't pay, I won't pay ya, No Way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?
Say no way, say no way-ah, no way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?

I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
To keep her bill collectors at bay
I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
Cause that girl's got expensive taste

I won't pay, I won't pay ya, No Way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?
Say no way, say no way-ah, no way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?

Well I guess it ain't easy
Doing nothing at alllllllll ohhhh yeahhhh
But hey man free rides just don't
Come along every day (Let me tell you about my other friend now)

My friend's got a boyfriend
Man she hates that dick
She tells me every day
He wants more dinero just to stay at home
Well my friend, you gotta say

I won't pay, I won't pay ya, No Way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?
Say no way, say no way-ah, no way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?

I won't give you no money, I'll always pay
Na na, why don't you get a job?
Say no way, say no way-ah, no way-ay-ay-ay
Na na, why don't you get a job?
