Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Been a long work week
Forty hours and change
I can still remember
My first part time job
Clock hands dragging slow
Hands sore, shirt wrinkled
I made it to Friday
Now I want my time
[Pre-Chorus]
Phone on do not disturb
I ain’t answering back
Got the screen face down
And I’m keeping it that way
[Chorus]
NOT TODAY
I’m off the clock for the day
NOT TODAY
I’m done with the work week pain
No honey do list
No more little demands
NOT TODAY
Let me be a free man
[Verse 2]
Boots by the door
Keys tossed in the bowl
I’m sitting on the porch
With my feet up slow
Grease on my knuckles
Dust on my jeans
I gave all I had
Now I need some peace
[Pre-Chorus]
Phone on do not disturb
I ain’t answering back
Got the screen face down
And I’m keeping it that way
[Chorus]
NOT TODAY
I’m off the clock for the day
NOT TODAY
I’m done with the work week pain
No honey do list
No more little demands
NOT TODAY
Let me be a free man
[Bridge]
If the mower can wait
And the trash can too
I’ll get to it later
When the sky turns blue
Right now I’m breathing
Right now I’m free
The whole world can hold on
It can wait on me
[Chorus]
NOT TODAY
I’m off the clock for the day
NOT TODAY
I’m done with the work week pain
No honey do list
No more little demands
NOT TODAY
Let me be a free man
