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
