"Sideways"

(Darryl Worley/J.B. Rudd/Vip Vipperman)

I show up for work on time at least five days a week 
Punch that clock and toe the line just to make ends meet 
Every day on my way home I pass them neon lights 
But I been thinking all day long about stopping in tonight 

I might get a little sideways 
Like I did in the old days 
Every once in awhile you know 
I slip off the straight and narrow 
Sitting down on a barstool 
Cutting up like a dang fool 
Now and then on Fridays 
I might get a little sideways 

I'm gonna call my baby up when that quitting whistle blows 
Girl put on your dancing shoes and grab my party clothes 
Meet me down at the rendezvous on highway seventeen 
We'll stoke up that jukebox and let off a little steam 

We might get a little sideways 
Like we did in the old days 
Every once in awhile you know 
We slip off the straight and narrow 
Sitting down on a barstool 
Cutting up like a dang fool 
Now and then on Fridays 
We might get a little sideways
