Fridat Night Blues

by John Conley

Words & Music by Sonny Throckmorton and Rafe Vanhoy

VERSE 1:

(C)He's been work-in' all week, he's got men-tal fa-tigue

and that (Dm)old couch sure looks fine

All (G7)week he's been gone, she's been sit-tin' a-lone

(Dm7)slow-ly go-in' (G7)out of her (C)mind

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

she's (Dm)get-tin' all pret-tied up

oh, she's (G7)want-in' to boo-gie, he's want-in' to lay there

(Dm7)she's got the Fri-(G7)day Night Blues(C)

CHORUS:

(F)And (G)the (C)Fri-day Night Blues they get in your shoes,

and they (Dm)work to get you down

Oh, and (G7)there ain't a la-dy that I ever knew

who didn't (Dm7)need her a (G7)night on the (C)town

(F)But (G)the (C)hills and the bills and a week's worth of deals

has got him (Dm)feel-in' more than used

Oh, he's (G7)kick-in' his shoes off, she's put-tin' her's on

(Dm7)she's got the Fri-(G7)day Night (C)Blues

VERSE 2:

Oh,there once was a time, she was top of the line

her nights like teen-age dreams

Now it's op-'ras at noon, danc-in' 'round with her broom

talk-in' to her wash-in' ma-chine

Oh, the girl down the street says her old man is neat

and she makes it sound so true

Now she's feel-in' lone-ly thinks she's the on-ly

One with the Fri-day Night Blues

REPEAT CHORUS:

TAGG:

And the Fri-day Night Blues they get in your shoe's

and they work to get you down

Oh, and there ain't a la-dy that I ever knew

who didn't need her a night on the town
