I Wish It Was Friday

I wake up every morning
At the start of every week
I pull on my work boots
And feel my old bones creak
Chorus
Lord I wish it was Friday
At the end of the week
48 hours to live my life in peace
Daddy drove an 18 wheeler
He was always on the road
Sometimes I’d hear Mama ask him
When are you coming home?
Chorus
Caesar ruled the western world
From the golden streets of Rome
You could hear him scream from the Senate floor
“Get Brutus on the telephone”
Chorus
Superman said to Batman
I know justice will prevail
But my feet feel just like Kryptonite
And this cave is cold as Hell
Chorus
Moses came off the mountain
Tablets in his hand
He said “I sure could use a shower
To wash off all this sand”
Chorus
Jesus was a carpenter
He worked 14 hour days
If he was here with us right now
I’ll bet you’d hear him say
Chorus
