SMALL TOWN SATURDAY NIGHT
It’s
just another small town Saturday night There’s
a sunset goin’ down The
groceries are bought, the choir’s had it’s practice and The
trucks start rolling into town They’re
parking by the bar in the fading light It’s
just another small town Saturday night Billy
rolls in just a little after eight He’s
got his aftershave but he hasn’t got a date He
hasn’t been lucky in a year or two He
knows he’s good-looking but what you gonna do? He
says if you don’t fish then you never get a bite It’s
just another small town Saturday night You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you feel all right You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you get a little tight You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til someone starts a fight It’s
just another small town Saturday night The
girls know they're pretty and the boys know they’re right It’s
just another small town Saturday night You
know everybody in this little old bar Who
likes to dance, who likes to shout You
know their families and you know their car And
if you don’t, you soon find out You
gotta play a little shuffleboard, have a couple beer When
the hockey team comes in, win or lose they get a cheer You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you feel all right You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you get a little tight You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til someone starts a fight It’s
just another small town Saturday night The
girls know they're pretty and the boys know they’re right It’s
just another small town Saturday night Put
all the money in the middle of the table Drink
‘til it’s gone if you are able Take
the bottle caps, try to toss them in the glass Anything
to make another Saturday pass Gord
is back from his job in the city He’s
got a girl, oh, the lucky mister They all feel jealous 'til they see that She
has brought her sister That
smartens them up, that livens up the place There’s
a smile on every single guy’s face They’re
buying her drinks (drinks!) ‘til she feels all right They’re
buying her drinks (drinks!) ‘til she gets a little tight They’re
buying her drinks (drinks!) ‘til two get in a fight Over
who buys her a drink on a Saturday night She
knows she's pretty and they know she’s right It’s
just another small town Saturday night You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you feel all right You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til you get a little tight You
gotta drink (drink!) ‘til someone starts a fight It’s
just another small town Saturday night The
boys know they're crazy, the girls know they’re right It’s
just another small town Saturday night You
gotta drink (drink!) You
gotta drink (drink!) You
gotta drink (drink!) It’s just another small town Saturday night
'Cause the girls know...
