|
I went down to the mountain, I was drinking some wine |
|
I looked up into heaven, lord I saw a mighty sign |
|
Writ in fire across the heaven, plain as black and white |
|
Get prepared, there's gonna be a party tonight |
|
Chorus |
|
Uh huh, hey, Saturday night |
|
One more Saturday night |
|
Hey, Saturday night |
|
Everybody's dancing down at the local armory |
|
With a basement full of dynamite and live artillery |
|
Temperature keeps rising, everybody getting high |
|
Come the rocking stroke of midnight, the whole place is gonna fly |
|
[chorus] |
|
I turn on Channel Six, the President comes on the news |
|
Says I got no satisfaction, that's why I sing the blues |
|
His wife says don't get crazy, Lord you know what to do |
|
Just crank that old Victrola, put on your rocking shoes |
|
[chorus] |
|
Then God way up in heaven, for whatever it was worth |
|
Thought he'd have a big old party, thought he'd call it planet earth |
|
Don't worry about tomorrow, Lord, you'll know it when it comes |
|
When the rocking, rolling music meets the rising, shining sun |
|
[chorus] |
