26 ContributorsThe Weekend Lyrics
[Intro]
(I, I, I, I, I)
[Chorus]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
[Verse 1]
I'm workin' all week long (I, I, I, I, I)
I dream the days away
I wanna sing my song (I, I, I, I, I)
So let the music play
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I have to get my kicks and fly tonight
And when the clock strikes six on Friday night (I, I, I, I, I)
I need to blow it all away (I, I, I, I, I) (No, no, no, no, no)
[Chorus]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
[Verse 2]
I make it, what I can (I, I, I, I, I)
I try, I try
I'm shakin' up my plan (I, I, I, I, I)
And I get by
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm savin' all my soul
And all my pain
So I can lose control on Saturday (I, I, I, I, I)
I'm gonna blow it all away (I, I, I, I, I)
[Chorus]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
(I, I, I, I, I)
[Bridge]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
For the weekend to begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
Begin
[Chorus]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I have to get my kicks and fly tonight
And when the clock strikes six on Friday night
I need to blow it all away
[Chorus]
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
I can't
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
I can't
I can't wait for the weekend to begin (I, I, I, I, I)
