Livin' for the Weekend

Hoo!

Let me just sit down and relax a minute

Let me tell you about it, huh

Huh-huh, it's Friday

Oh-oh-oh, thank God, it's Friday and I just got paid

Goin' across town

Gonna pick up my lady

Have a little bit of fun

Just ain't no tellin' where I might end up

You might see me on the east side, huh, the west side

I'm even goin' cross the bridge over

'Cause I, 'cause I, 'cause I hear they really get down over there

(Well, well, I) owe it to myself

(Well, well, I) doin'

(Well, well, I) gonna party

(Well, well, I) gonna party

(Well, well, I, well, well, I) party-party-party

(Well, well, I) I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-

(Well, well, I) I-I owe it to myself

(Well, well, I, well, well, I) oh, party, party, aah

For the next two days, I (livin' for the weekend)

Gonna have a real good time (livin' for the weekend)

Gonna have a real, real, real good time (livin' for the weekend)

Gonna party hard, hard

Come on, y'all, let's go downtown

Come on, y'all, let's groove

Hey, hey, hey

Monday to Thursday, I'm dead on my feet

Most of the time too tired to eat

When I try to read the paper, I fall fast asleep

But as soon as Friday rolls around

I lay all my weekly burdens down

I put on my glad rags and paint the town

(Livin' for the weekend)

Friday night alive (livin' for the weekend)

Said I-I-I-I, I'm livin' for the weekend

Don't stop when I party down

(Ah-ah) party hard, (ah-ah) party down

(Ah-ah) party hard, (ah-ah) party down

Soon as on Monday rolls around again

I got to put all that partyin' to an end

Got to solve that same old grind with those five a day weekend

Sometimes, I get frustrated through the day

Take off early and I just get paid

At the time, I don't really care

Because I done took all that I can bear

(Livin' for the weekend) weekend, oh-oh, ah-ah

(Livin' for the weekend) hey, I'm, I'm, I'm-

(Livin' for the weekend) 'cause that's when I party down

(Ah-ah-ah) party hard, (ah-ah-ah) party down

(Ah-ah-ah) party hard, yeah (ah-ah-ah) party down

(Ah-ah) party hard, (ah-ah) party down

(Ah-ah-ah) party hard, (ah-ah) party all night

(Ah-ah) Monday, (ah-ah) dead in my socks

(Ah-ah) Tuesday, (ah-ah) too tired to rock

(Ah-ah) Wednesday, (ah-ah) tired, wanna sleep
