Well, I know a boy, he worked all day
Broke his back to earn his pay
Never really one to complain and fuss
He's just living like the rest of us

Well, Friday came along, He rang my line
Said look at the clock it's about damn time
I work too hard to stay at the house
And barstool sound pretty good right now

And we go...
Like a hunting dog cutting through the wind in the wintertime
And oh...
We ain't missing out on what we can't have back
Cause when its gone, its gone now carry on
Live it up cause it ain't too long

Well, I know a good time waiting at the bar
We've hung out but I never get far
But tonight's a new night and you never know
What may come of it if I go

She got big brown eyes and some long tan legs
Walked up to me and this is what she said
The doors right over there, my friend
And you won't get this chance again

And we go...
Like a hunting dog cutting through the wind in the wintertime
And oh...
I ain't missing out on what I can't have back
Cause when it's gone, it's gone now carry on
Live it up cause it ain't too long
