Thank god it's a Saturday night
Down by the riverside.
Cheerleaders in the back of the bed
With them tailgates down.
Speakers up and the radio on
Don't matter who's singing a song.
Country music or Rock'n'Roll-
We'll play it all night long.

Just raising a little hell.
Ain't nobody went to jail.
Oooh, all the stories we could tell...

Long-legged blond in the pale moonlight
Probably caused a friendly fight,
That's what you get when you hang with them
Girls of summer.
Big time dreams and small town nights.
Hank Jr. and Fred Dust saved our lives
Smack dab in the middle of a middle
American Saturday night.

Tammy painted a heart on a sign that says:
"Bobby Joe 'till the day I die."
She thinks he's gonna settle down
But she's wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong
'Cuz Bobby Joe's looking out for the sheriff
He's riding high on an oil derrick
And he yells
"I ain't comin' down 'till you play my favorite song."

Well, I was on the roof of my car
Playing my air guitar
And nobody could tell me I wasn't born to be a star.

Long-legged blond in the pale moonlight
Probably caused a friendly fight,
That's what you get when you hang with them
Girls of summer.
Big time dreams and small town nights.
Hank Jr. and Fred Dust saved our lives
Smack dab in the middle of a middle
American Saturday night.

Just raising a little hell.
Ain't nobody went to jail.
Oooh, all the stories we could tell...

Long-legged blond in the pale moonlight
Will probably caused a friendly fight,
That's what you get when you hang with them
Girls of summer.
Big time dreams and small town nights.
Hank Jr. and Fred Dust saved our lives.
Smack dab in the middle of a middle
American Saturday night.

Long-legged blond in the pale moonlight
Probably caused a friendly fight,
That's what you get when you hang with them
Girls of summer.
Big time dreams and small town nights.
Johnny Cash and Kid Rock saved our lives.
Smack dab in the middle of a middle
American Saturday night
Middle American Saturday...
Oh
An American Saturday night
Yeah
Ohoooo
