The Weekend
Weekend Wisdom: Embrace Life, Love, and Laughter
Lyrics
Oh, few things work out like you want 'em to
Expressing that things often don't go as planned
But just do your best; it's the best you can do
Encouraging to do one's best, acknowledging limitations
The sailboats are gliding to shore with the wind
Describing sailboats smoothly reaching shore with the wind
Go out and stroll about and find a friend
Suggesting to go out, socialize, and make new connections
Yeah, the long week is gone, now the weekend's begun
Signifying the end of the workweek and the start of the weekend
Go down and check the tavern; you might find some fun
Encouraging a visit to a tavern for potential enjoyment
The girls from the high ridge are singing tonight
Mentioning girls from a high ridge singing, creating a lively atmosphere
Hang out and drink some wine and feel all right
Suggesting relaxation with wine to feel content
Does your heart tell the truth when you're lying?
Raising a question about honesty and sincerity in one's feelings
Number one
Indicating a significance or priority with "Number one"
Does your blues get you high when you're crying?
Asking if sadness or blues have an uplifting effect
Oh, oh, now
Adding emphasis with "Oh, oh, now"
Yeah, the telephone's ringing, but nobody's home
Describing a situation where the telephone rings but goes unanswered
She's out for the evening, but she's not out alone
Implying someone is out for the evening but not alone
Of course you could find her, but what'd be the use?
Raising the question of whether finding that person would be worthwhile
Hang out and drink some wine and just get juiced
Suggesting enjoying wine and getting energized instead
Does your mind hit the groove when you're gleaming?
Pondering if the mind aligns well with positive experiences
Number two
Highlighting significance with "Number two"
Does your life start to live while you're dreaming?
Asking if life becomes vibrant during dreams
Oh, oh, now
Reiterating emphasis with "Oh, oh, now"
The slow week is gone, now the weekend will run
Indicating the transition from a slow week to an active weekend
Relax on a Sunday and soak up some sun
Suggesting relaxation on Sunday, enjoying sunlight
There ain't much of nothin' that's free anymore
Noting the scarcity of free things but highlighting the value of sunshine
But the sunshine's real fine and don't keep score
Emphasizing that sunshine is enjoyable without keeping score
Do you think you could love one and only?
Asking about the capability of loving only one person
Number three
Signifying importance with "Number three"
Does your blues get you off when you're lonely?
Questioning if blues or sadness provide comfort in loneliness
Oh, oh, now
Reiterating emphasis with "Oh, oh, now"
