The Weekend

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
