It was a Saturday night in a place back just like this In the laughin' and the dancin', we were havin' one last kiss There's nothing quite as lonely as a crowd when you're all alone And there's nothing but Sunday morning waitin' for me at home So why does everybody love Saturday night Stale smell of beer and the smoke in your eyes I keep sittin' and drinkin' and thinkin' 'bout a sad good-bye So tell me why is everybody so in love with Saturday night Well hey bartender could you throw those drunk girls out And don't you think that band's just a little too loud Tell that couple in the corner to please go get a room It's a damn good party but what am I supposed to do Why does everybody love Saturday night Stale smell of beer and the smoke in your eyes I keep sittin' and drinkin' and thinkin' 'bout our sad good-bye So tell me why is everybody so in love with Saturday night Well she's out there somewhere With a pretty little dress A smile in her eyes 'Cause she's one of those who loves Saturday night Oh why does everybody love Saturday night Stale smell of beer and the smoke in your eyes I keep sittin' and drinkin' and thinkin' 'bout our sad good-bye So tell me why is everybody so in love Why is everybody so in love Why is everybody so in love with Saturday night Oh yeah, Saturday night
