Weekend On The River

(Verse 1) Been working hard, sweating in the sun, Counting down the days till the weekend comes, Friday night, I’m packing up the truck, Heading to the river, where I find my luck. Grab my fishing pole and a cooler of beer, Leave all my worries, leave my fears, Down by the water, with the moonlight glow, That’s where my heart finds peace, you know. (Chorus) Weekend on the river, where time stands still, With a gentle breeze and a midnight chill, We’ll laugh and sing under the starlit sky, Living for the moments money can’t buy. Weekend on the river, where friends gather ‘round, In the heart of nature, that’s where joy is found. (Verse 2) Saturday morning, fire’s burning bright, Coffee in the pot, breakfast’s a delight, Kids are splashing, dogs running free, In this riverside paradise, it’s where we’re meant to be. John’s got his guitar, starts to play, A little bit of country to start the day, We’ll fish, we’ll float, let the current take, All our troubles downstream, for goodness sake. (Chorus) Weekend on the river, where time stands still, With a gentle breeze and a midnight chill, We’ll laugh and sing under the starlit sky, Living for the moments money can’t buy. Weekend on the river, where friends gather ‘round, In the hear (Bridge) As the sun sets and the fireflies dance, We’ll hold each other close, take a chance, On these simple joys, these perfect nights, Where love and laughter make everything right. (Verse 3) Sunday morning, packing up to leave, But we take with us these memories, Of a weekend well spent, hearts so light, Ready to face the week, with spirits bright. We’ll be back next Friday, same old spot, Where the river sings and worries are forgot, ‘Cause in this place, our souls are free, Weekend on the river, it’s where we’ll always be. (Verse 4) Monday comes, back to the grind, But I keep those river days in mind, Through the hustle and the busy pace, I see those smiling faces, feel the open space. We’re counting down, making plans, For another weekend with all our friends, In the city, we’ll work and wait, For the river’s call, it’s never too late. (Chorus) Weekend on the river, where time stands still, With a gentle breeze and a midnight chill, We’ll laugh and sing under the starlit sky, Living for the moments money can’t buy. Weekend on the river, where friends gather ‘round, In the heart of nature, that’s where joy is found. (Pre-Outro) As the weekdays drag, we dream away, Of the river’s peace, and the nights we play, Hold onto those moments, keep them tight, ‘Cause come Friday evening, everything’s alright. (Outro) So here’s to the weekends, down by the stream, Where life is sweeter than any dream, We’ll keep coming back, year after year, To the place where we find our cheer.
