Lyrics...
Got my boots strapped & cleaned up good, My best jeans on & I brushed my teeth, My shirt's hangin' up nice & fresh, I got 3 days off & I plan to take it all
1234- the Dr just left my front door. 5678910 - I'm hittin' the city with a bullet in my pants, lord...
I'm just a boy living for the weekend, Washing down the sin of that ol' 9 to 5. Tell the Devil he's invited if he can keep pace, baby
That Doc he sets your boy up right. He's always on cue & the price is always right, I never did catch his real name but think I'll send him a Christmas card sometime
1234 - I'm just about running out that door, 5678910 - I'm hittin' that city
with a bullet in my pants..
I'm just a boy living for the weekend, Washing down the sin of that ol' 9 to 5. Tell the Devil he's invited if he can keep pace, baby
That city buzz it gets me going, You get in there & don't care how you get home There's pretty women everywhere, "Excuse me boys, I think I got me a beauty on the line"
1234 - I can see you giving me the eye. 5678910 - I'll give you my number if you can guess my name.
I'm just a boy living for the weekend, Washing down the sin of that ol' 9 to 5. Tell the Devil he's invited if he can keep pace, baby
There's always some kind of ruckus goin' down, You know the dealers & shakers And the mornin' bakers, Come in to town & forget to have a good time, I got 3 days off & that's all wanna do
1234 - I think I'll take myself to the loo once more, 5678910 - wow boys, the city lights are bright again.
I'm just a boy living for the weekend, Washing down the sin of that ol' 9 to 5. Tell the Devil he's invited if he can keep pace, baby
3 days lost in a concrete jungle. My jeans are ripped & I can't find my boots. There's red wine all over my new rug, and I still don't think I've had enough.
1234 - I hear the vultures scratchin' at my door, 5678910 - think I'll call my dear Doctor again,
I'm just a boy living for the weekend, Washing down the sin of that ol' 9 to 5. I believe it was the Devil that just took me for the ride, baby. Come on and save me.
