Lyrics
Ride by my side
We can go anywhere
Within a two-hour drive
Leave our plans behind
We can do anything
There is always enough time
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday
Time to unwind
Can't wait for Saturday
So we'll steal from the weekday grind
Leave our cares behind
A little getaway
Is what we need to survive
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday
It's the middle of the week
The traffic will be light
We can find a secluded, scenic spot
With no one else in sight
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday
Day Trip Tuesday (it's the middle of the week)
Day Trip Tuesday (it's the middle of the week)
Day Trip Tuesday
