Sometimes You’ve Got To Do What You Can

By Frank Meyer

 

 

Verse 1

It’s a Friday night and I’m headin’ downtown

Gonna find my friends and just hang around

Have a little dinner and drink a few brew

Sit on a barstool and find out the news

 

Chorus

It’s a Friday night and you know I’m feeling good

And I’d like to feel this way all week if I could

I’ve come to learn that it’s a part of the plan

Sometimes you’ve just got to do what you can

 

Verse 2

Well, there’s a little place where I like to go

No one there ever puts on a show

Some folks get happy and some they get mean

But most are content to be part of the scene

 

Chorus

Instrumental

 

Verse 3

We’ll shoot a little pool and play that video

And crank up those tunes and let those beers flow

Talk about the future and reflect on that past

Enjoy it all now ‘cause it’s not, not gonna last

 

Chorus

 

Verse 4

A quarter-to-two and I guess that is all

I heard the last call for alcohol

One more week and you know what then

We’ll be back here to do it once again

 

Chorus

Chorus
