★ WATCH MORE ★ ★ SUBSCRIBE ★ Who do you thank for the weekend?! The fun that we are seekin’ The break from school I know that you’ll Wanna thank em and now we can! I wanna Thank em for the weekend! Go back in time Over a hundred years Jobs moved to the cities It was hard, and dark, and gritty Farming life had built in breaks Like walking with a sheep That just takes the time it takes Trapped inside a factory The workers needed to be free And unions said LISTEN TO ME! Henry Ford and other bosses Calculated gains and losses Workers went on strike for rights Like having fun on Friday nights If worker could afford new cars They needed time to drive outdoors Free to pray, Free to play And Free to drive around all day! The Weekend is so great, hurray! Thank those workers for the weekend The fun that we are seekin’ Nowadays, The economy Is based on when we’re feeling free When we can go out and party Not just fun But mental health Cant take care of business If you don’t take care of yourself! Thank those workers for the weekend The fun that we are seekin’ The break from school I know that you’ll Wanna thank ’em and now we can! Thank you for the weekend!
