C

Well Saturday night at 8 o'clock

                       C7

I know where I'm gonna go
G

I'm gonna pick my baby up
    G7                      C

And take her to the picture show

 

C                C7
Everybody in the neighbourhood
                           F

Is dressing up to be there too
                C

And we're gonna have a ball
     G              C

Just like we always do

Chorus:

C        F
Saturday night at the movies
               C

Who cares what picture you see
C                                     G                     C

When you're hugging with your baby in last row in the balcony

 

C
Well there's technicolor and cinemascope
                 C7

Just out of Hollywood
G

And the popcorn from the candy stand
    G7                  C

Is all tasting twice as good

 

C                      C7
There's always lots of pretty girls
                               F

With figures they don't try to hide
               C

But they never can compare
       G                  C

To the girl sittin' by my side

(repeat chorus till fade)
