You get home just about sundown 
And dunk into the shower 
And now you started to run around 
And you know you've only got an hour 
To comb your hair and put your good clothes on 
Everything has gotta be right 'cause it's saturday nite 

You call your best friend on the telephone 
And just about seven you hear him coming 
With his fiberclass mufflers on his pick up truck 
Cause when you look good uh baby you feel good 
Everything is gonna be right 'cause it's saturday nite 

You got to town and circle the dairy queen 
To see who is hanging out 
With your head all stuck out the window 
You don't care if it all hangs out 
Cause when you feel good uhu mama you look good 
Everything is gonna be right 'cause it's saturday nite
