lyrics

Saturday night, I'm tryin' to do it up right
Got me some money and I'm gonna get high as a kite
Gonna do it up right

Saturday night souvenir
- Laughing out loud drinking beer
These tokens of life we'll endear
- just one Saturday night souvenir

I'm headin' uptown, time for foolin' around
I'll find me a girl, and maybe, we'll paint the town
We're headin' uptown

CHORUS

Like waves, the hours crash and go
-The singles bars, and the disco
This Juliet and Romeo
-had their night swept out in the undertoe

The night up in smoke, with coffee, they spoke
Talkin' 'bout life, we shrugged it off, as a joke
Our night up in smoke

Till the dawns early light
- dancing laughing all night
I spent all my money,
but I'm thankful that we did it up right
- Sunday morning, bright

Saturday night souvenier
-dancing for smiles, hoisting cheers
These tokens of life to endear
-Our Saturday night souvenir

Saturday night souvenier
-Swapping a smile, trade a tear
These tokens of life we endear
-Many Saturday night... it's a Saturday Night souvenir
