F
Well, it’s Saturday night and I just got paid
Fool without my money, don’t try to save
My heart says Go! Go! Have a time
‘Cause it’s Saturday night and I feel fine
CHORUS:
Bb F
I’m gonna rock it up, gonna rip it up
Bb F
Gonna shake it up, gonna bomb it up
C F
Gonna rock it up and ball tonight
Verse 2:
I’ve got me a date and I won’t be late
Pick her up in my 88
Trek on down to the social hall
When the joint starts jumpin’, gonna have me a ball
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Along about 10 I’m flyin’ high
I walk on out into the sky
But I don’t care if I spend my dough
‘Cause tonight I’m gonna be one happy soul
(chorus)
