The bells are ringing for me and my gal, The birds are singing for me and my gal. Ev’rybody’s been knowing to a wedding they’re going, And for weeks they’ve been sewing, Ev’ry Susie and Sal. They’re congregating for me and my gal; The parson’s waiting for me and my gal. And sometime I’m gonna build a little home for two, Or three or four or more, In love land for me and my gal. ---

Morning comes at last, and she’s lying by my side She’s got the face of the widow that keeps following me And the body of my bride I say, why are those buildings swaying like trees? I say, can we stop for a while? She says, can’t you hear the city that’s hidden in there? It’s just another mile I’ll dream I’m safe In my hotel womb Soft and soul made It’s a wonderful room I wish I’m back In my hotel womb Slip through the crack To that wonderful room ---

Feeling good, feeling right, it’s Saturday night. The hotel detective, he was out of sight. Now, these fine ladies, they had a plan. They was out to meet the boys in the band. They said, “Come on, dudes! Let’s get it on.” And we proceeded to tear that hotel down! ---

It’s getting late have you seen my mates Ma tell me when the boys get here It’s seven o’clock and I want to rock Want to get a belly full of beer My old man’s drunker than a barrel full of monkeys And my old lady she don’t care My sister looks cute in her braces and boots A handful of grease in her hair Don’t give us none of your aggravation We had it with your discipline Saturday night’s alright for fighting Get a little action in Get about as oiled as a diesel train Gonna set this dance alight 'Cause Saturday night’s the night I like Saturday night’s alright, alright, alright ---
