Every Friday Afternoon - Craig Morgan

She called me up this morning

Said there’s something you should know

There’s a job back home in Boston

And I think I’m gonna go

My parents are in Cambridge

And I’ve got some old friends there

I know you think this isn’t fair

And the tears started fallin'

There was nothing I could say

Even if I fight it

Someone loses either way

Oh, it might as well be China

Or the dark side of the moon

There’s no way I can be there every Friday afternoon

I have him every weekend

He’s got his own room here

He’s all that’s kept me going

These past three years

There’s little league in Boston

Oh, but who will coach his team?

How’s he gonna grow up without me?

And the tears started fallin'

There was nothing I could say

Even if I fight it

Someone loses either way

Oh, it might as well be China

Or the dark side of the moon

There’s no way I can be there

Every Friday afternoon

What about Christmas?

If I can’t get off of work

What about his birthday?

If I’m not there he’ll be hurt

And I know the day is coming

When she’ll find someone new

But he’ll never love him

Like I do

Well, it might as well be China

Or the dark side of the moon

There’s no way I can be there

Every Friday afternoon
