Shine, Shave, Shower (It's Saturday Night) (1951)
Oh it's Saturday Yes it's Saturday

Gonna shine, shave, shower and brush my teeth
Go out a-dancing and forget my grief
Make all the nightclubs in this town
Cause my sweet baby's gonna show me around

Well we'll go here and there and everywhere
Where we go I just don't care
We'll do the town up and do it right
Because tonight is Saturday night

Who cares if talk gets around?
Just cause I'm sly and not so mean
Saturday don't come but once a week

Gonna shine, shave, shower and brush my teeth
Go out a-dancing and forget my grief
Make all the nightclubs in this town
Cause my sweet baby's gonna show me around

Gonna shine, shave, shower and brush my teeth

Go out a-dancing and forget my grief
Make all the nightclubs in this town
Cause my sweet baby's gonna show me around

Well we'll go here and there and everywhere
Where we go I just don't care
We'll do the town up and do it right
Because tonight is Saturday night

Daylight will catch me going strong
One only lives once in a life
And I don't have a nagging wife

Gonna shine, shave, shower and brush my teeth
Go out a-dancing and forget my grief
Make all the nightclubs in this town
Cause my sweet baby's gonna show me around

Gonna shine, shave, shower and shampoo
Go out a-dancing the whole night through
Gonna swing it left and swing it right
Because tonight is Saturday night
