Lyrics

CLINGING TO THE WEEKEND

VERSE

It seems like every Monday morning is worse than the last
I'm dragging like a seatbelt hanging out the car door
Every callus on my hands and the boss on my back
Makes me wonder how I keep on coming back for more
Then I go from slump day to hump day
Next thing I know it's pay day

CHORUS

By Friday at five, I'm so excited
I tear out of the parking lot and go party like a pirate
Saturday morning, no time for sleeping late
I'll be wide-eyed in a deer stand or fighting bass out on the lake
Sunday morning I pray that the weekend doesn't end
And come Sunday night, I'm clinging to the weekend

SECOND VERSE

The guys are shooting pool down at triangle lanes
That would keep my mind off work and Monday morning
Then I'll stop off at Wings for the Sunday night game
No matter who is playing or what the score is
But there's no stopping Monday or slump day
So I'll try to hang on 'til it's pay day

CHORUS

By Friday at five, I'm so excited
I tear out of the parking lot and go party like a pirate
Saturday morning, no time for sleeping late
I'll be wide-eyed in a deer stand or fighting bass out on the lake
Sunday morning I pray that the weekend doesn't end
And come Sunday night, I'm clinging to the weekend

BRIDGE

But tomorrow's a new day and I don't have to take it
I'll go on in to work just to pull a Johnny Paycheck
Give the boss my middle finger as I'm walking out the door
'Cause I'm not gonna live just for the weekend anymore

CHORUS

By Friday at five, I'm so excited
I tear out of the parking lot and go party like a pirate
Saturday morning, no time for sleeping late
I'll be wide-eyed in a deer stand or fighting bass out on the lake
Sunday morning I pray that the weekend doesn't end
And come Sunday night, I'm clinging to the weekend
