Friday afternoon and i'm packing up my car
Got my bags ready, we don't have to go too far
Just a little drive away from all this city stress
Two days of freedom, that's all we need i guess
Small town motel with the flickering neon light
Convenience store coffee and talks throughout the night
No wifi signal, no emails to reply
Just you and me beneath this country sky
Weekend getaway, leave it all behind
Weekend getaway, clear our troubled minds
No deadlines, no schedules to keep
Weekend getaway, memories we'll reap
Weekend getaway, weekend getaway
Dusty roads leading to nowhere we've been
Windows down, music up, feeling young again
Gas station snacks and maps we'll never need
Sometimes getting lost is exactly what we need
Diner pancakes taste better when you're free
Jukebox playing songs from nineteen eighty three
Local folks are friendly, time moves nice and slow
This is how weekends are supposed to go
Weekend getaway, leave it all behind
Weekend getaway, clear our troubled minds
No deadlines, no schedules to keep
Weekend getaway, memories we'll reep
Weekend getaway, weekend getaway
Sunday evening and we're heading home
But we're already planning where we'll roam
Next weekend can't come soon enough
Weekend getaway, leave it all behind
Weekend getaway, clear our troubled minds
No deadlines, no schedules to keep
Weekend getaway, memories we'll reep
Weekend getaway, weekend getaway
Till monday comes around
