Play up Show Up

4:30 on a Friday, I was knockin' off from work

Boss, I won't be in on Monday, I'll be face down in the dirt

Me and the boys have got big plans, we won't be drinkin' water

Gonna be a real good time, might be a little hungover

Said, play up, show up, come Monday, don't be late

While you're workin' hard at drinkin' hard, remember I don't wait

Play up, show up, when you're drownin' that shot glass

If you don't show up on Monday, well, I'm gonna kick your—

Askin' her to dance was the best damn thing I ever did

Nine months after that first kiss, we were havin' our first kid

Before I knew it, weddin' bells were ringin' in my ear

Those four words my boss said to me had never been so clear

When he said, play up, show up, come Monday, don't be late

While you're workin' hard at drinkin' hard, remember I don't wait

Play up, show up, when you're drownin' that shot glass

If you don't show up on Monday, well, I'm gonna kick your—

Yeah, I know that they'll have questions when they're old enough

I'll say, "When it comes to life, it's all about showin' up"

Play up, show up, next thing we're sayin' vows

I was workin' hard at drinkin' hard, but I love how things turned out

Play up, show up, everybody raise your glass

I'll be showin' up on Monday or I'll kick my own—

Play up, show up, come Monday, don't be late

While you're workin' hard at drinkin' hard, remember I don't wait

Play up, show up, it all goes by so fast

If you're showin' up on Monday, everybody raise your glass

Raise 'em up

Play up, show up (Play up, show up)

Play up, show up

Play up, show up (Play up, show up)

Play up, show up
