I work five days a week at the liquor store Stocking the shelves and sweeping the floorOn Friday night when I get paid I like to hit the road
To a little place called feelin' goodIts a little place and it's understood A workin'stiff like me can go and have some fun and lighten the load
FirstI get a drink at the crowded bar Then I start tunin' my old guitar Damn how I wish I was playin' on the radio I been playin' here nearly thirteen years In between songs I drink a lot of beer Drinkin' helps me loosen up and lets the Country Music flow
(chorous) Im a Weekend Country Cowboy A good ole boy on the scene Pickin' the strings and singin' the music A genuine part-time American dream, and it's a redneck's nights vocation, all I gotta do is pick an play and sing Cause I'm a Weekend Country Cowboy But I feel like a Honky Tonk King
(Verse) Once in a while I like to play in a band Travel around doin one-night- stands I'd like to quit my full time job if I could find a way Pack my bags and move down to Tennessee, Country Western Musics's gonna set me free I'll try to write the perfect song and make it happen someday
Every now and then I get the Country Blues it's all a part of what they call Payin' dues You gotta be tough if you really wanna play the game Every-body tries to tell you what to do There ain't no easy answers it's up to you Nothin's any tougher than the road that leads to fortune and fame
(chorous) Im a Weekend Country Cowboy A good ole boy on the scene Pickin' the strings and singing the music A genuine part-time American dream, and it's a redneck's night vocation, all I gotta do is pick an play and sing Cause I'm a Weekend Country Cowboy But I feel like a Honky Tonk King
