[lively acoustic guitar solo] (8 bars)
[Verse 1]
We cram in that dusty Jeep, headlights cutting the dark
Main Street’s already thumping like a runaway heart
Everybody’s here—old friends, new faces
Voices rolling out the door, fillin’ up all the spaces
The first place we hit is loud as it gets
Speakers shaking walls, can’t hear what you said
Somebody’s got a whiskey raised up high
And we’re screaming out the words, not a care in the night
⸻
[Chorus]
Oh, Saturday in this town
Where the world don’t weigh us down
We’re laughin’ loud, we’re singin’ proud
Till the lights all fade out
Yeah, we’re young and free and feelin’ high
With nothin’ but time and borrowed rides
Bar to bar, we’re runnin’ around
Saturday in this town
[Verse 2]
Hear a cover band playin at the bar down the street,
Recognize the song from the sound of the beat,
It’s shoulder to shoulder once we enter the door,
Grab a drink at the bar and we hit the dance floor,
We’re dancin’ and singin’ the night away,
Don’t care what anybody has to say,
Feelin’ the music, yellin’ over every song
Spillin’ half our drinks just tryin’ to sing along
⸻
[Chorus]
Oh, Saturday in this town
Where the world don’t weigh us down
We’re laughin’ loud, we’re singin’ proud
Till the lights all fade out
Yeah, we’re young and free and feelin’ high
With nothin’ but time and borrowed rides
Bar to bar, we’re runnin’ around
Saturday in this town
[guitar solo] (8 bars)
⸻
[Bridge]
Over the mic they announce last call,
Enjoy one more drink and the last few songs,
File out to the street when the lights come on,
Wait for the sober cab and then the nights gone.
⸻
[Chorus]
Oh, Saturday in this town
Where the world don’t weigh us down
We’re laughin’ loud, we’re singin’ proud
Till the lights all fade out
Yeah, we’re young and free and feelin’ high
With nothin’ but time and borrowed rides
Bar to bar, we’re runnin’ around
Saturday in this town
⸻
[Outro]
We’ll remember these nights when the years roll on
Every cheap beer memory, every half-sung song
Saturday in this town—where we all belong
