lyrics

my friend's got a girlfriend man he hates that bitch 
he tells me everyday
he says "man i really gotta lose my chick in the worst kind of way"
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 why don't you get a job
say no way, say no way, no way why don't you get a job
i guess all his money, well it isn't enough
to keep he bill collectors at bay
i guess all his money, well it isn't enough 
cause that girl's got expensive taste
well i guess it ain't easy do nothing at all 
but hey man free rides don't just come along everyday
let me tell you about my other friend now
my friend's got a boyfriend man she hates that dick
she tells me everyday
he wants more dinero just to stay at home 
well my friend you gotta say
