(Looking For) The Heart Of Saturday Night |
| Well you gassed her up |
| Behind the wheel |
| With your arm around your sweet one |
| In your Oldsmobile |
| Barrelin' down the boulevard |
| You’re looking for the heart of Saturday night |
| You got paid on Friday |
| Your pockets are jinglin' |
| And you see the lights |
| You get all tinglin' cause you’re cruisin' with a 6 |
| And you’re looking for the heart of Saturday night |
| Then you comb your hair |
| Shave your face |
| Tryin' to wipe out ev’ry trace |
| All the other days |
| In the week you know that this’ll be the Saturday |
| You’re reachin' your peak |
| Stoppin' on the red |
| You’re goin' on the green |
| 'Cause tonight’ll be like nothin' |
| You’ve ever seen |
| And you’re barrelin' down the boulevard |
| Lookin' for the heart of Saturday night |
| Tell me is the crack of the poolballs, neon buzzin? |
| Telephone’s ringin'; |
| it’s your second cousin |
| Is it the barmaid that’s smilin' from the corner of her eye? |
| Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye |
| Makes it kind of quiver down in the core |
| 'Cause you’re dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before |
| And now you’re stumblin' |
| You’re stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night |
| Is the crack of the poolballs, neon buzzin? |
| Telephone’s ringin'; |
| it’s your second cousin |
| And the barmaid is smilin' from the corner of her eye |
| Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye |
| Makes it kind of special down in the core |
| And you’re dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before |
| It’s found you stumblin' |
| Stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night |
| And you’re stumblin' |
| Stumblin onto the heart of Saturday night |
