I never work on a Sunday
I've got a life of my own
And this here is the one day
I spend with my family at home
I left the office in a flash on Friday
Threw my boots in the car
Cashed my pay check and headed for the country
To sleep underneath the stars
I drove all day Saturday and right into the evenin'
'Til there were no more city lights
Those broken lines were gettin' blurry through my windscreen
Well I guess I drove all night
Then Sunday mornin' found me rollin' into sunrise
With my fuel gauge dead
I pulled into fill up, found the place deserted
And a little sign that read
I never work on a Sunday
I've got a life of my own
And this here is the one day
I spend with my family at home
All I could do is call up a tow truck
To take me further down the road
I fumbled round and round for some change in my pocket
Walked fifteen minutes to the phone
There in the phone book, I found a business advert
Saying, "Use us instead"
I dialed the number and a tape recorder answered
And it politely said
I never work on a Sunday
I've got a life of my own
And this here is the one day
I spend with my family at home
I finally got back home and it took forever
Then at work the next day, somebody said
"Hey, the boss said he wants to see you in his office right away" “
He told me just how far behind the work was getting
And on the weekend could I stay
I started laughin' and said, "You must be kiddin'
I just got one thing to say, you know what I said
I never work on a Sunday
I've got a life of my own
And this here is the one day
I spend with my family at home
I never work on a Sunday
I've got a life of my own
And this here is the one day
I spend with my family at home
I'm quite entitled to one day
To spend with my family at home
