Boss Don't Own My Sunday
TitanChord
Five days a week he gets my back
Five days a week he gets my hands
Five days a week he gets my best minutes
Five days he gets to make his plans
But Sunday morning, brother, that is mine
Sunday morning is the line
You can buy my Monday, buy my Friday
You can't buy my Sunday wine
Boss don't own my Sunday
Boss don't own my soul
Boss owns the timecard, that's about it
Boss don't own the whole
Boss don't own my Sunday
Forty years my daddy gave the company
Company gave him a watch he couldn't read
Forty years my granddaddy bent his back
Foreman couldn't even spell his name on the deed
Boss called me at home last night
I let it ring 'til the answerin' machine
Boss texted Sunday morning
I let the phone go cold and clean
Boss don't own my Sunday
Boss don't own my soul
Boss owns the timecard, that's about it
Boss don't own the whole
Boss don't own my Sunday
Some men live to retire
Some men live for the bottle's call
I live for the slow Sunday morning
And I won't be tied to nothin' at all
If the company burned to the ground tomorrow
The company wouldn't show up to my wake
But my brother would, and my brother's kids
And the dog I should've named Drake
Boss don't own my Sunday, y'all
Boss don't own my time
Boss don't own my fishin' rod
Boss don't own this rhyme
Boss don't own my Sunday
Boss don't own my Sunday

Five days a week he gets my back Five days a week he gets my hands Five days a week he gets my best minutes Five days he gets to make his plans
But Sunday morning, brother, that is mine Sunday morning is the line You can buy my Monday, buy my Friday You can't buy my Sunday wine
Boss don't own my Sunday Boss don't own my soul Boss owns the timecard, that's about it Boss don't own the whole Boss don't own my Sunday
Forty years my daddy gave the company Company gave him a watch he couldn't read Forty years my granddaddy bent his back Foreman couldn't even spell his name on the deed
