Well, I've been a-working hard the whole week long
Tonight I'm a gonna have some wine, women and song
I gotta work next week but that's alright
I've got five dollars and it's Saturday night.

I'm gonna have fun tonight
Gonna get right tonight
Everything will be alright
'Cause tonight is Saturday night. 

There is music and dancin', flirtin' and fun
It's gonna go on until way past one
I'm a-gonna go where the lights are bright
I've got five dollars and it's Saturday night.

I'm gonna have fun tonight
Gonna get right tonight
Everything will be alright
'Cause tonight is Saturday night. 

Let other folks worry what the future may bring
Just sit and worry won’t get you a thing
My pants may be ragged but that's alright
I've got five dollars and it's Saturday night.

Gonna have fun tonight
Gonna get right tonight
Everything will be alright
Because tonight is Saturday night.
