John Conlee - Friday Night Blues lyrics

rate me

He's been workin' all week, he's got mental fatigue

And that old couch sure looks fine

All week he's been gone, she's been sittin' alone

Slowly goin' out of her mind

As he kicks off his shoes for the six o'clock news

She's gettin' all prettied up

Oh, she's wantin' to boogie, and he's wantin' to lay there

And she's got the Friday night blues

Oh, those Friday night blues they get in your shoes

And they work to get you down

Oh, 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 worth of deals

Has got him feelin' new

Oh, he's kickin' his shoes off, she's puttin' 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 washin' machine

And she makes it sound so true

Now, she's feelin' 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

Oh, 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 worth of deals

Has got him feelin' new

But he's kickin' his shoes off, she's puttin' 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

Now, 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 worth of deals

Has got him feelin' new

Oh, he's kickin' his shoes off, she's puttin' hers on

'Cause she's got the Friday night blues
