Down At "The Maverick's Bar" The words are original but the theme could be considered well-worn standard fare.
Hard Rock is definitely not my usual style so I was way out of my comfort zone here!

Down At “The Maverick’s Bar”
Spend all day working hard on the factory floor
Waiting for the whistle to blow at half-past four.
That foreman's giving me grief and I'm looking for some relief
But that won't happen till I clock off and I run out the door.
Friday night it's a totally different scene
When our band gets together,
we pretend that we're living the dream
Down at "The Maverick's Bar," I plug in my magic guitar
Crank up the amp and I let those awesome humbuckers scream
Joey's our drummer and he never misses a beat.
And Mike plays rhythm -- gets the crowd up on their feet
And even when he's off his face, Phil plays a mean P-bass
Sandy's on keys -- she's the real bees knees
and she sings so sweet
Friday night it's a totally different scene
When our band gets together, we pretend that we're living the dream
Down at "The Maverick's Bar," I plug in my magic guitar
Crank up the amp and I let those awesome humbuckers scream
