I'm gonna call my friends and get 'em here right away   Well now there's Bud & Joe & Jim & John & Hank & also Ray   Oh the weekend's here, looks like a swingin' day   The surf is up and were leavin' right away   Well we jumped in the woody, it's ten after ten   Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week-end      Well a-here we are but it's dowdy and it's grey   The surf is down man, it's not so good today   Oh the day is young, look overthere; thataway!   Our band is here and they're just about to play   Now we danced all day till sundown set in   Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week—end      The day is over and we'll soon be on our way   We'll wait till tomorrow, for it's another day   Our boards need wax, but look overthere; thataway!   The band is back and they're just about to play   We kicked off our shoes and stomped around once again   Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week-end   Hooray for week-end
