I love the sound of a jukebox playing, So I sit here while she’s staying home watching Dallas on TV I love the taste of whiskey straight, But the strongest thing she ever takes is a sip from a small glass of Chablis. Though birds of a different feather, our love keeps us together, And she knows what’s wrong with me tonight,
[Chorus:] I’ve got that Friday night fever; Sometimes a man just needs a breather. She knows I love her and I need her. And I’m no cheater, I’ve just got that Friday night fever.
She wouldn’t change me if she could, so I wouldn’t change her, she’s too good. Sometimes a man just needs a change of pace. I’ve heard all those come-on lines, but I go home at closing time. I know no one could ever take her place Now she’s taking down her hair, she knows I’ll soon be there To give her the love she needs tonight.
