 Intro licks: c C   BbGEb C

 

C7

I went down to the mountain, I was drinkin’ some wine

Looked up into heaven Lord, I saw a mighty sign

Writ’ in fire cross the heavens, Just as plain as black and white

"Hey, there’s gonna be a party tonight!"

 

       F7                                  C7

Uh-huh, it’s Saturday night

                 G7        Bb                                    F7

Well, uh-huh, One more Saturday night

                     C7                   C7 (8 beats total)

Saturday night

 

Well, everybody’s dancin’ Down the local armory

With a basement full of dynamite And live artillery

Tempur’ture keeps risin’ Everybody gettin’ high

Come the rockin’ stroke of midnight Whole place is gonna fly

 

Chorus +  Jam Verse + Chorus 

 

I turn on channel six The President comes on the news

Says, "I get no satisfaction That’s why I sing the blues"

His wife says, "Don’t get crazy Lord, you know just what to do.

Crank up that ol’ victrola Break out your rockin’ shoes"

 

Chorus

 

Then God, way up in heaven For whatever it was worth

Thought he’d have a big ol’ party Thought he’d call it planet Earth

Don’t worry ‘bout tomorrow Lord, you’ll know it when it comes

When the rockin’, rollin’ music Meets the risin’, shinin’ sun

 

Chorus

Playin’ on a Saturday Night, Playin’ on a Saturday Night

F7                                            C7

Everybody gettin’ high Playin’ on a Saturday Night

G7                                    Bb                                     F7

One more Saturday, one more Saturday night
