There's some friends that I know living in this town and I've come far to see them Gonna track em' down They live in a brick house painted white and brown Left a tip for the maid and I packed up my guitar, dropped my key on the counter, rented a car Gonna hook up with em' later and go hit the bars I need a big weekend Kick up the dust Yeah a big weekend If you don't run, you rust Well I may shake your hand but I won't know your name The joke in your language don't come out the same There's times when I'm down and there's nothing to blame I need a big weekend Kick up the dust Yeah a big weekend If you don't run, you rust I can work, I can travel, sleep anywhere, cross every border with nothing to declare You can look back babe, but it's best not to stare. I need a big weekend Kick up the dust Yeah a big weekend If you don't run, you rust.
