Charlie Rich was simultaneously one of the most critically acclaimed and most erratic country singers of post-World War II era. Rich had all the elements of being one of the great country stars of the '60s and '70s, but his popularity never matched his critical notices. What made him a critical favorite also kept him from mass success. Throughout his career, Rich willfully bended genres, fusing country, jazz, blues, gospel, rockabilly, and soul. Though he had 45 country hits in a career that spanned nearly four decades, he became best-known for his lush, Billy Sherrill-produced countrypolitan records of the early '70s.

Lonely Weekends
Charlie Rich
(Rich)
Well I'm makin' alright (Well I'm makin' alright)
From Monday morning till Friday night
Oh, those lonely weekends
Since you left me (since you left me)
I'm as lonely as I can be
Oh, those lonely weekends
You said you'd be (ooh-wah) good to me (ooh-wah-wah)
You said our love (ooh-wah) would never die (ooh-wah-wah)
You said you'd be (ooh-wah) good to me (ooh-wah-wah)
But baby, you didn't even try
Well I'm makin' alright (Well I'm makin' alright)
From Monday morning till Friday night
Oh, those lonely weekends
You said you'd be (ooh-wah) good to me (ooh-wah-wah)
You said our love (ooh-wah) would never die (ooh-wah-wah)
You said you'd be (ooh-wah) good to me (ooh-wah-wah)
But baby, you didn't even try
Well I'm makin' alright (Well I'm makin' alright)
