Big Weekend Lyrics

There's some friends that I know
Living in this town
And I've come far to see them
Gonna track 'em down

They live in a brick house
Painted white and brown

Left a tip for the maid
And I packed up my guitar
Dropped my keys on the counter
Rented a car

Gonna hook up with 'em later
And go hit the bars

I need a big weekend
Kick up the dust
Yeah a big weekend
If you don't run you rust

Well I may shake your hand
But I won't know your name
The joke in your language
Don't come out the same

There's times when I'm down
And there's nothing to blame

I need a big weekend
Kick up the dust
Yeah a big weekend
If you don't run you rust

I can work
I can travel
Sleep anywhere
Cross every border
With nothing to declare
You can look back babe
But it's best not to stare

I need a big weekend
Kick up the dust
Yeah a big weekend
If you don't run you rust
