Weekend Song

[Verse 1]

This back-breakin', bone-shakin', belly-achin', hard-workin'

Two more hours to go

Yes, it's keeping me alive doin' nine to five

And I ain't got nothin to show

Pretty soon I'll be leavin' with the wages I'm receivin'

But I know it's gonna be all right

[Chorus]

Come on, babe, and take me away

We got some money to spend tonight

[Bridge]

Pick me up at the station

Meet me at the train

Have a meal and a shower and a change of clothes

I can't afford a vacation

But I can take the strain

Long as I can be with you

Find a way to burn it as quickly as I earn it

Yes, it's back-breakin', bone-shakin', belly-achin', hard-workin'

Two more hours to go

Seven long years for the same corporation

And I ain't got nothin' to show

[Pre-Chorus]

And tonight when I'm leavin' I'll be just breakin' even

But I know it's gonna be all right

[Chorus]

I shake off my blues when you put on your shoes

We got some money to spend tonight

Oh, I don't wanna stand here and sound accusin'

Everybody does their share of losin'

If I'm gonna lose it I might as well be doin' it right

[Bridge]

Pick me up at the station

Meet me at the train

Have a meal and a shower and a change of clothes

I can't afford a vacation

But I can take the strain

Long as I can be with you

Find a way to burn it as quickly as I earn it

[Verse 1]

This back-breakin', bone-shakin', belly-achin', hard-workin'

Two more hours to go

Yes, it's keeping me alive doin' nine to five

And I ain't got nothin to show

[Pre-Chorus]

And tonight when I'm leavin' I'll be just breakin' even

But I know it's gonna be all right

[Chorus]

Come on, babe, and take me away

We got some money to spend tonight

Come on, babe, and take me away

We got some money to spend tonight
