The evening fell just like a star Left a trail behind You spit as you slammed out the door If this is love we're crazy As we fight like cats and dogs
Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' em down You wear a dress, baby, I'll wear a tie We'll laugh at that
-in the neon billin' Theater's fillin' to the brim Slave girls and hot spurn Bucket full of sin Metropolitan area Interchange and connections Fly-by-nights
I'm drunk on the moon Hearts flutter and race, the moon's on the wane Tarts mutter their dream, hopes the night will ordain Come schemers and dancers
I'm leavin' my family, I'm leavin' all my friends My body's at home but my heart's in the wind Where the clouds are like headlines on a new front page
I never saw the morning till I stayed up all night I never saw the sunshine till you turned out the light I never saw my home town until I stayed away
me a key 'Cause opportunity don't knock He has no tongue and she cannot talk You're gonna shuffle when you walk At the depot This peeping-Tom needs
diamond Across a cash crop car lot filled with twilight Coupe Devilles Leaving the town in a-keeping of the one who is sweeping Up the ghost of Saturday night
Friday left me fumblin' with the blues And it's hard to win when you always lose Because the nightspots spend your spirit Beat your head against the wall
Well, you hate those diesels rollin' And those Friday nights out bowlin' When he's off for a twelve hour lay overnight You wish you had a dollar For
before It's found you're stumblin' You're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night And you're stumblin' Stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night
Saturdays that came before And now you're stumblin', stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night Now you're stumbling, stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday
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
