On A Mission — текст песни (Trick Pony)

(Ira Dean/David Lee Murphy/Kim Tribble)

To me twelve months is a long, long time.
Someone suddenly changed their mind,
You were sendin` out,
Now it`s just too late.
But I won`t one night of sleep,
Worrying about what was mean`t to be.
Yeah, `cause leavin`
Is just a reason to celebrate.

I`m on a mission, I got a cause.
I`m gonna hit every rockin` little honky-tonk bar,
An` the way I`m thinkin`,
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I`m on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I`m on a mission,
And it`s all about forgettin` tonight.

Forty-hour week and I`m out the door,
Seems like all I`ve been workin` for,
Is that time when I can finallyjust cut loose.
I got a few good friends and they`re waitin` to go.
Just gimme some time to change my clothes.
Till Monday mornin`, there ain`t nothin` I gotta do.

I`m on a mission, I got a cause.
I`m gonna hit every rockin` little honky-tonk bar,
An` the way I`m thinkin`,
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I`m on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I`m on a mission,
And it`s all about forgettin` tonight, that`s right.

Ain`t worried `bout a five-day, no sleep, business week, no escape, workin` girl blues.
Yeah, I`m a-just doin` what any other modern-day, American woman might do.

I`m on a mission, I got a cause.
I`m gonna hit every rockin` little honky-tonk bar,
An` the way I`m thinkin`,
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I`m on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I`m on a mission,
And it`s all about forgettin` tonight., that`s right.
