John Waite Saturday Night lyrics

Workin' overtime
Just to keep myself from gettin' sacked
Well, I don't like my job
Tell the boss to shove it

I ain't goin' back
Just like Gene Vincent
I'm longing to prove
I know what I need this time

Me and my girl together, yeah
Saturday night, oh yeah
Saturday night

Lookin' at my watch
Tappin' my fingers
Wishin' time would fly
Gonna look so sharp

She and I will turn some heads as we walk by
And just like Vermeer
I wait for still life to move out of my mind
Tonight

I might suddenly all feel better
Saturday night, oh yeah
Saturday night, ow

And I feel like the rain on the edge of a rhyme

On the streets I'll shine
Forever in an instant

Saturday night, oh yeah
Saturday night
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday night

Crossin' off the days in my brain
Gonna get it good
Gonna get it right

Ain't it just like Verlaine
To be dancin' in the streets
I know what I need this time
Me and my girl together

Oh yeah, Saturday night
Oh yeah, Saturday night
Saturday night, oh yeah
Alright, alright, oh yeah

Alright, alright
Oh oh oh
Oh, Saturday night
