HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS - Couple Days Off lyrics

rate me

I like my job and I don't mind the work<br>But eleven out of twelve is bound to hurt<br>The pay's pretty good and the benefits are fine<br>But I got a little girl and I wanna make her mine<br><br>Don't mind telling you I get a little mad<br>To get a bit ahead takes all the time I have<br>Don't misunderstand me<br>I'm not getting soft<br>All I want is a couple days off<br><br>Can't wait for the weekend<br>Ah baby just can't wait no<br><br>I don't need another high song to sing<br>I don't need a shiny new diamond ring<br>I don't need to meet nobody else<br>I just need a little time for myself<br>'cause I'm only human, I'm no machine<br>I need a little loving only you know what I mean<br>Don't misunderstand me<br>I'm not getting soft<br>All I want is a couple days off<br><br>Let me catch my breath<br><br>Thank God for the weekend<br><br>Back to the old grind<br><br>I don't need another long coffee break<br>I've had as much coffee as a man can take<br>I need to change my disposition<br>Change my point of view<br>I need time to figure out what I want to do<br><br>Believe me when I tell you it gets a little rough<br>We work a little harder but it never is enough<br><br>I'm not afraid to say<br>I'm a total loss<br>All I want is a couple days off<br><br>Can't wait for the weekend
