VERSE
|
Oh, few things work out like you want 'em to
|
But just do your best, it's the best you can do
|
The sailboats are gliding to shore with the wind
|
Go out and stroll about and find a friend
|
|
VERSE
|
Yeah the long week is gone--now the weekend's begun
|
Go down and check the tavern, you might find some fun
|
The girls from the high ridge are singing tonight
|
Hang out and drink some wine and feel all right
|
|
CHORUS
|
Does your heart tell the truth when you're lying?
|
#1
|
Does your blues get you high when you're crying?
|
Oooh, oooh now
|
|
VERSE
|
Yeah, the telephone's ringing, but nobody's home
|
She's out for the ev'ning, but she's not out alone
|
Of course you could find her, but what'd be the use?
|
Hang out and drink some wine and just get juiced
|
|
CHORUS
|
Does your mind hit the groove when you're gleaming?
|
#2
|
Does your life start to live while you're dreaming?
|
Oooh, oooh now
|
|
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
|
|
VERSE
|
The slow week is gone, now the weekend will run
|
Relax on a Sunday and soak up some sun
|
There ain't much of nothin' that's free anymore
|
But the sunshine's real fine and don't keep score
|
|
CHORUS
|
Do you think you could love one and only?
|
#3
|
Does your blues get you off when you're lonely?
|
Oooh, oooh now
