Well I'm driving for the weekend,
Down to the shore,
I got my radio on,
I got the top end floored,
I took a hundred dollars,
More than half of my pay,
And I'll blow it all by Saturday,

(Chorus)

I'm getting out of here,
That's all I know,
Cause I've had it up to here,
I want to go, I want to go, I want to go,
I want to go, where the action is,
Go where the action is,
No, no, no, I just can't go home,
I want to go where the action is,

Well I have a little honey,
Back in my hometown,
She talks so pretty,
Turns my head around,
We started going steady,
She pulled my heart strings,
Now all she wants is that diamond ring

(Chorus)

Well I'm getting tired workin
Pushin nine to five,
Gettin harder each day just to feel alive,
When I take a look around
I don't like what I see,
This old town it needs something,
But it don't need me

(Chorus)
