Lyrics

Pay Dirt

[Intro]

One, two, one, two, three, four

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay

[Verse]

Sink or swim, I'm jumpin' in

Huddled masses cling together but the herd gets thin

Self assured with those fighting words

Your so-called figure of speech won't be heard

[Chorus]

I'll never lose my shirt

I'll never lose my shirt

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

I'll never lose my shirt

I'd rather die of thirst

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

[Post-Chorus]

Fast

Moving fast

Ducking fast

Running fast from the blast

I'm here to carry my weight

Murder will out the ingrates

No tampering with the soul

I'm sidestepping your phony idols

Yeah

Ah yeah

Yeah

Yeah, yeah, ahhhh

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

I'll never lose my shirt

I'll never lose my shirt

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

I'll never lose my shirt

I'd rather die of thirst

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

Someday I'll hit pay dirt

[Post-Chorus]

Fast

Moving fast

Ducking fast

Running fast from the blast

I'm here to carry my weight

Murder will out the ingrates

No tampering with the soul

I'm sidestepping your phony idols

I'm here to carry my weight

Murder will out the ingrates

No tampering with the soul

I'm sidestepping your phony idols

[Outro]

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay dirt

That's when I'll hit pay dirt
