friday night blues

he's been working all week he's got mental fatigue and that old couch sure looks fine

all week he's been gone she's been sitting alone slowly going out of her mind

as he kicks off his shoes for the six o'clock news she's getting all prettied up

while she's wanting to boogie he wants to lay there she's got the friday night blues

oh

those friday night blues they get in your shoes and they work to get you down

aw

and there ain't a lady that i ever knew who didn't need her a night on the town

but the hills and the bills and a week full of deals has got him feeling used

while he's kicking his shoes off she's putting hers on 'cause she's got the friday night blues

oh

there once was a time she was top of the line her nights like teenage dreams

now it's operas at noon

dancin' round with her broom talkin' to the washing machine

oh

the girl down the street says her old man is neat and makes it sound so true

now she's feeling lonely thinks she's the only one with the friday night blues

oh

those friday night blues they get in your shoes and they work to get you down

aw

but there ain't a lady that i ever knew who didn't need her a night on the town

but the hills and the bills and a week full of deals has got him feeling used

while he's kicking his shoes off she's putting hers on 'cause she's got the friday night blues

oh

those friday night blues they get in your shoes and they work to get you down

aw

but there ain't a lady that i ever knew who didn't need her a night on the town
