Since I got back from the city - Life hasn’t been the same
Workin’ night & day in the neonlight – Gotta do it over again
Waiting tables in the evening - Washing dishes at night
Bleeding for the money ‘till the end of the week - Just to get my baby in sight

And I’m working for the weekend
Working for the weekend
Yeah I’m working for the weekend
Work so hard to see my girl

Jane she likes to go out dancing - She likes to live it up downtown
The city’s calling out for you child - The city is making a sound
I just wanna be with my baby - I’m happy everywhere she’s at
The weekend’s coming up, its showtime - Gotta go & do it again

So I’m working for the weekend
Working for the weekend
Working for the weekend
Work so hard to see my girl
(2x)

Stay with me baby - Stay with me one more time
Play with me honey - Play with me like you’re mine (stop)

Stay with me baby - Stay with me one more time
Play with me honey - Play with me like you’re mine

I am working for the weekend
Working for the weekend
Yes I am working for the weekend
Work so hard to see my girl
