TOM PETTY - Big Weekend

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 which 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.
