Well you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow 
Kick off your shoes and you throw them on the floor 
Dance in the kitchen 'till the morning light 
Louisiana Saturday Night 

Waitin' in the front yard, sittin' on a log 
A single shot rifle and a one-eyed dog 
Yonder come our kin-folk in the moonlight 
Louisiana Saturday Night 

Well you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow 
Kick off your shoes and you throw them on the floor 
Dance in the kitchen 'till the morning light 
Louisiana Saturday Night 

My brother Bill and my other brother Jack 
Barrel full of beer and a possum in a sack 
Fifteen kids in the front porch light 
Louisiana Saturday Night 

When the kin-folk leave and the kids get fed 
Me and my woman gonna slip off to bed 
Have a little fun when we turn out the lights 
Louisiana Saturday Night 


Well you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow 
Kick off your shoes and you throw them on the floor 
Dance in the kitchen 'till the morning light 
Louisiana Saturday Night (x3)
