Single

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out with your girls and you got a couple drinks
Keep the party jumpin' 'cause the neighborhood is sleep
Walk straight to the bar 'cause they covered all the fees
You said you got a man but that's only for the week

'Cause you're single on the weekend
Yeah, you're single on the weekend
Said you're single on the weekend
'Cause you're single on the weekend

Tell me who said you gotta figure it out
You're only twenty and some change
All that's on your mind is going out
He says "say this", "don't say that"
And he says "wear this", "don't wear that"

You got a mind of your own
Not the type to sit yourself at home, no
You're like a lion in a cage
Scratching at the side of the door

And you've been trying to escape
'Cause all you've ever known is there is more

Out with your girls and you got a couple drinks
Keep the party jumpin' 'cause the neighborhood is sleep
Walk straight to the bar 'cause they covered all the fees
You said you got a man but that's only for the week

'Cause you're single on the weekend
Yeah, you're single on the weekend
Said you're single on the weekend
'Cause you're single on the weekend

Out with your girls and you got a couple drinks
Keep the party jumpin' 'cause the neighborhood is sleep
Walk straight to the bar 'cause they covered all the fees
You said you got a man but that's only for the week

'Cause you're single on the weekend
Yeah, you're single on the weekend




Said you're single on the weekend
'Cause you're single on the weekend
