Subject: Lyr Req: Friday Night Blues by Stuart MacGregor
Known for songs like Coshieville, and Sandy Bell's Man.

I am looking for the Lyric to Stuart MacGregor's Friday Night Blues.
I'm missing a couple verses, I think. Anyway this is what I have.

Friday Night Blues

Friday night I guess I’m only half alive
But when I hear the whistle blowing and it’s half past five
I’ve been tied to a desk all day
Now I know it’s my turn to play
Make my way right quickly to a bar down town
With an ever lovin’ woman with her hair hung down
Pull out your pins, put your lipstick on
Baby let your hair hang long!

My mother always said I’d find an early grave
What with all the booze and badness that my hormones crave
Once I read the bible and it made me think
But I never found a chapter that was better than a drink!
Come on pretty lady be my girl for the night
And we’ll find some beer that’s heavy and some talk that’s light
Paradise is waiting so come on, come on
Baby let your hair hang long!
