Lyrics
Got six bucks, that's enough for a beer run
Now, all we need is someone to do the buying
My buddy Lendell, he ain't never got no money
But he drinks up most the beer every time
By nine o'clock, got a half a case between us
Pull into the Quick Pick Lendell, had to have some smokes
There sits Susie in Billy Scott's Camaro
Lendell gives her a wink, Billy says, "You want your neck broke?"
They're about to go toe-to-toe
Here comes a cop car
Lendell says, "The cemetery, Bill
We'll see how bad you are"
Another Friday night
In this oil patch town
Keep the beers outta sight
When the state troopers come around
Now, we ain't looking for trouble
But wouldn't mind a fight
What else you gonna do?
It's just another Friday night
Billy says, "Let's get it on", and Lendell just slugs him
That's 'bout all the fighting that got done
Sheriff pulls up, he says, "What you hoodlums doing?"
"Oh, nothing much, junior, just trying to have some fun"
He's acting tough and taking down names
And shutting us down
But at least we got something to talk about
When Monday rolls around
Another Friday night
In this oil patch town
Keep the beers outta sight
When the state troopers come around
Now, we ain't looking for trouble
But wouldn't mind a fight
What else you gonna do?
It's just another Friday night
Friday night
In this oil patch town
