Jim Patton and Sherry Brokus - The Lottery

The Lottery

I'm gonna fix myself a cup of coffee
Before I go off to work
I'm gonna smoke a cigarette and relax
Until I'm ready to leave
And if I'm late and the boss is a jerk
I'll tell the boss to shove off
That's what you can do when you win the lottery

When you win the lottery
That's when you finally get to be free
That's what happens
When you win the lottery

I'm gonna take my wife to places
She's always wanted to go
We'll leave the lights on all over the house
Whenever we please
I'm gonna take my car to the shop when it's broke
We’ll see a doctor when we get sick!
That's what you can do when you win the lottery

When you win the lottery
That's when you finally get to be free
That's what happens
When you win the lottery

Everything's gonna change
I'm gonna smile when I pay my bills
It won't have to be a weekend
For us to go out and have a good time

When you win the lottery
That's when you finally get to be free
That's what happens
When you win the lottery
That's what happens
When you win the lottery
Yeah, that's what I'll do
When I win the lottery
(You gotta play to win)
