Oh yeah! Alright! |
|
I had myself a good job in the city, |
|
Pushin' a pen and talkin' on the phone. |
|
The money was good but the work was such a big drag, |
|
I thought that my brain would turn to stone. |
|
But I ain't gonna work no more, I've got better things to do, I do, |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, mmm hmm. |
|
They told me if I stayed on for a lifetime, |
|
I'd be an office manager some day. |
|
But my heart was never in the right place, |
|
I only went there for the pay. |
|
But I ain't gonna work no more, I've got better things to do, mmm hmm, |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, Oh yeah. |
|
Well on Friday, the weekend rolls around, |
|
Saturday, I'm gonna rock this town. |
|
On Sunday, won't have to worry no more, |
|
'Cause Monday ain't so bad when there's no work in store. |
|
I guess the money comes in handy, |
|
It helps me pay the bills and rent. |
|
But if I stay too long on this job, |
|
I'll wonder where my time all went. |
|
But I ain't gonna work no more, I've got better things to do, doo-bah-doo. |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you. Oh come on! |

|
Whoo! |
|
Well Tuesday, I'll hang out the beach, |
|
Wednesday, this boy can not be reached. |
|
Thursday, I'll stand out in the rain, |
|
When Friday comes, I'll start all over again. |
|
But I ain't gonna work no more, I've got better things to do, you know I do! |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, mmm hmm. |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you. |
|
I need a seven day weekend, spend some time with you, oh yeah! |
