about

This is a song written by Tom Waites.

lyrics

You gas her up, you're behind the wheel
You put your arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile
And you go barrelin' down the boulevard
Looking for the heart of Saturday night

You got paid on Friday, your pockets are jingling
Then you see the lights and you get all tingling
And you're rollin' with a six
Looking for the heart of Saturday night

You comb your hair, you shave your face
You try and wipe out every trace
Of all the other nights in the week
You know this'll be the Saturday you're reaching your peak

Stopping with the red, you're going with the green
This night will be like no other night that you've ever seen
You go barreling down the boulevard
Looking for the heart of Saturday night

Tell me, is it the crack of the pool balls, or the neon buzzing?
Oh the telephone rings, it's your second cousin
Or is it the barmaids smile from the corner of her eye?
Or the magic of the melancholy tear in your eye

That makes it kind of quiver down in the core
When you're dreaming of the Saturday nights that have gone before
And now they've got you stumbling
Stumbling onto the heart of Saturday night

You gas her up you're behind the wheel
You put arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile
And you go barreling down the boulevard looking for the heart of Saturday night

Tell me, is it the crack of the pool balls, or the neon buzzing?
Oh the telephone rings, it's your second cousin
Or is it the barmaids smile from the corner of her eye
Or the magic of the melancholy tear in your eye

Makes it kind of special down in the core
When you're dreaming of the Saturday nights that have gone before
Now they've got you stumbling
Stumbling onto the heart of Saturday night

Oh Now they got you stumbling
Stumbling onto the heart of Saturday night
