Everybody's always waiting on Friday Watching that clock and sittin' on go Whatcha' say we find a little warm sunshine And open up an umbrella on the patio Don't need a reason or a happy hour Ain't hanging around for a fireworks show Get a head start a little sip of somethin' Off and runnin', here we go 1, 2, 3 here we go Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking We could be feeling all right I know you know what I'm thinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Blame it on the work day Blame it on the heatwave Blame it on the tick-tock moving too slow Blame it on any old thing you want to Ready get set, baby here we go Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking We could be feeling all right I know you know what I'm thinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Day drinking, day drinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking We could be feeling all right I know you know what I'm thinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking We could be feeling all right I know you know what I'm thinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Why don't we do a little day drinking Why don't we do a little day drinking
