My older brother Tommy Was a lineman Rest his soul His job was hanging hot wires On them high-line power poles Every morning bright and early He`d climb way up in the sky And I never understood it So one day I asked him why
[CHORUS:] He said it pays big money And man I`m into that It pays big money If you`re willing to Take a chance Let me tell you something sonny You ought to see My bank account It pays big money but He sure can`t spend it now
Well, my late Uncle Charlie Was this demolition hound He`d travel across the country Blowing buildings to the ground He carried a case of dynamite Seemed everywhere he went He smoked them big long cigars And he`d wink at you and grin
[Repeat chorus]
Well now the Moral of this story boys Is don`t go Getting yourself killed Be kind to your rich relatives They just might Put you in their will
That pays big money and We`re all into that It pays big money and Big money`s where it`s at Let me tell you something sonny You ought to see my bank account It pays big money and We`re rolling in it now
It pays big money Having foolish kin It pays big money Guess I owe it all to them Let me show you something sonny Take a look at this bank account It pays big money Let`s all spend some of it now
