One More Saturday Night Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I went down to the mountain, I was drinking some wine
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 going to be a party tonight

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, Hey! Saturday Night!
One more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night!

[Verse 2]
Everybody's dancing down the local armory
With a basement full of dynamite and live artillery
The temperature keeps rising, everybody getting high
Come the rocking stroke of midnight, the whole place going to fly

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, Hey! Saturday Night!
One more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night!

[Verse 3]
Turn on Channel Six, the President comes on the news
Says, "I got no satisfaction, that's why I sing the blues
His wife say "Don't get crazy, Lord, you know what to do
Crank up that old Victrola, put on your rocking shoes
[Chorus]
Uh-huh, Hey! Saturday Night!
One more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night!

[Verse 4]
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 rock and roll music meets the rising, shining sun

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, Hey! Saturday Night!
One more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night!
Uh-huh, Hey! Saturday Night!
One more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
