Letra
[Verse 1]
To my people who don't wanna go to work
Thank God it's Friday
Cover me, she 'bout to put up her skirt
Thank God it's Friday
Do your mom know you act so berserk?
Thank God it's Friday
What's the drag, what's the drag, girl?
She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
[Verse 2]
I wanna thank my hood
For makin' me a star before I had fast cars
And couldn't tell the difference 'tween Whoppers and caviar
Before the fame, way before things changed
And I wanted to do was freestyle and get a name
I used to work at the fast food restaurant
For minimum wage, dreamin' I'm on stage
At seventeen, I left the house
'Cause my father was a minister and I didn't want the Marvin route
What's goin' on?
Today, to sell a song, you need a video with soft porn
MCs in the industry, you want a tip?
Don't let them pimp you like Goldie
And tell Sony, they better have my money
'Cause I play with the Commodores, then be like Lionel Richie
Low income
I stay so hungry, that if 50 Cent came to rob me
He'd be part of my charity
I wanna thank my hood
[Verse 3]
Yo, to my people cuttin' hair in the shops
Thank God it's Friday
To the thugs sweatin' up in the chop shop
Yo, it's Friday
To my people who don't got no job
Every day, it's Friday
What's the drag, what's the drag, yo?
She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
[Verse 4]
(All the ladies sing)
I don't feel
Like cookin' you no breakfast this morning
(All my hoodlums sing)
Well, you don't have to cook me breakfast
'Cause your girlfriend will after you leave
(I wanna thank my hood)
[Verse 5]
For the love of money
I know kids who'll slit your throats
Friday the 13th, Jason with a trenchcoat
But you can't scare Susie 'cause her man's got so many uzi's
You'd think he was Gaddafi
Meanwhile, she's gettin' her nails done
Crystal clear, so can shine with her diamonds
It's such a shame what happened last week
Man, they found her under the sheets with a letter from the Son of Sam
It said to tell New York, "I ain't sleepin'
You want be clubbin', you better pack your heat in"
And to my man, G Swar, rest in peace
I still poor liquor, one draw on the cocoa leaf
Inhale, exhale, smoke brownies
Police is in the area, but ain't no need to panic
You with, Wyclef, you gettin' in
If not, we gon' make CNN
[Verse 6]
I wanna thank my hood
[Verse 7]
To my people who don't wanna go to work
Thank God it's Friday
Cover me, she 'bout to put up her skirt
Thank God it's Friday
Do your mom know you act so berserk?
Thank God it's Friday
What's the drag, what's the drag, girl?
She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
Yo, to my people cuttin' hair in the shops
Thank God it's Friday
To the thugs sweatin' up in the chop shop
Yo, it's Friday
To my people that don't got no job
Every day, it's Friday
What's the drag, what's the drag, yo?
She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
[Verse 8]
(All the ladies sing)
I don't feel
Like cookin' you no breakfast this morning
(All my hoodlums sing)
Well, you don't have to cook me breakfast
'Cause your girlfriend will after you leave
