One More Saturday Night Live at Austin Municipal Auditorium Austin TX November 15 1971 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2010

[Verse 1]
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 'cause there's gonna be a party tonight

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Hey, uh-huh, 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 placе is gonna fly

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Hey, uh-huh, one morе Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night, woo
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Turn on Channel Six, the President comes on the news
Says, "I get no satisfaction, that's why I sing the blues"
His wife say, "Don't get crazy, Lord, you know just what to do
Crank up that old Victrola and break out your rocking shoes"

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Hey, uh-huh, one more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night, ow

[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
Lord, we're young and crazy but I don't see reason why
Why we need to wait, Lord, we should be having fun

[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Hey, uh-huh, one more Saturday night
Ah, ah-ha

[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Hanging on a Saturday night
Hanging on a Saturday night
Everybody get right
Hanging on a Saturday night
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night
Ow, hanging on a Saturday night
Hanging on a Saturday night
Ow
Hanging on a Saturday night
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night
Ow, hanging on a Saturday night
Hanging on a Saturday night
Woo-hoo, hey, Saturday, hey, Saturday night
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night
Ooh

We're gonna take a break now, and we'll back in about, oh, you know, a few minutes
