David Ackles - Another Friday Night lyrics



Another Friday Night,
Guess I'll put a clean shirt on and hitch a ride to town.
No more work for two whole days,
there's no point hangin' round.
Workin' on the road,
I sweat, and ache, and cuss the pain,
but it sure does pass the time.
Today is free and all I see are the same old walls to climb.
Guess I could fault my morals, but, and maybe borrow Jack's guitar and find a girl to sing to.
Lord know's she's what I'm longing.
Hey, who am I kidding,
She can't be, the sort of girl who'd wait for me and sunday races in the kind of places I've been longing.

But I hold on, to my dreams, anyway.
I never let them die.
They keep me going through the bad times,
while I dream,
Of the good times, coming by.

Ten years out from home,
joined the circus, worked the fields,
but I never saved a dime.
Never stayed in one place long,
'less I was doing time.
Looking for my life,
I thought I'd found it once or twice,
but it turned out I was wrong.
Heard the music, and learned to dance to someone else's song.
I've had men tell me be content,
to spend your life for food and rent,
and give up trying.
They say life's a dying jailer.

I just tell them,
I do alright.
Still it's rough on Friday night,
when there's time for thinking,
I spend it drinking up my failure.
But I hold on, to my dreams, anyway.
While I dream
of the good times, coming by.
