Well, you gassed her up, behind the wheel
          F             
With your arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile
          D7                            G7                              C        G      C     G
And you?re barrellin' down the boulevard, your lookin' for the heart of Saturday Night.

            C       G                C           G              
And you got paid on Friday, and your pockets are jinglin'
        F                              
And you see the lights, you get all tinglin' 
            D7                G7
'Cause your cruisin' with a 6,
                                    C        G      C     G
And you're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night.

         F               G                C         G        C        
Then you comb your hair, shave your face, tryin' to wipe out ev'ry trace
   F                                   Dm7
Of all the other days in the week, you know that this'll be the Saturday 
       G7
You're reachin' your peak.

C               G           C            G
Stoppin' on the red, you're goin' on the green, 
       F
'Cause tonight'll be like nothin' you've ever seen,
           D7                           G7                              C        G      C     G
And you?re barrellin' down the boulevard, your lookin' for the heart of Saturday Night.

                      F                       G                          
And tell me is it the crack of the pool balls neon buzzin'?
C         G                    C      G
Telephone ringin'; it's you're second cousin.
          F
Is it the barmaid that's smilin' from the corner of her eye?
    D7                      G7
The magic of the melancholy tear in your eye.

C                G      C           G
Makes it kind of quiver down in the core
            F
'Cause your dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before
   D7                            G7                           C       G      C         G        
And now you're stumblin', you're stumblin' on to the heart of Saturday night.

          C          G   C          G
Well, you gassed her up, behind the wheel
