I Know a Good Time

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

A barstool sounds 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 I can't have back

'Cause when it's gone, it's gone, and I 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

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

She walked up to me, and this is what she said

"The door's 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, and I carry on

Live it up 'cause it ain't too long
