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!
