Get Down Saturday Night

Lyrics

Get down, it’s Saturday night
Saturday night, Saturday night
Get down, it’s Saturday night
Saturday night, Saturday night

Saturday morning,
Friday’s at an end
Housework is calling,
But where to begin
Kids are out of school,
Trying to find a friend
Everybody’s busy,
Can’t wait for the night to begin

You work all week long,
You work your fingers to the bone
Friday’s at an end,
I can’t wait for Saturday to begin!

Get down it’s Saturday night, it’s Saturday night, Saturday night
Gonna be alright, Saturday night
Make love until the morning come
(Get down it’s Saturday night)
Gonna have myself some fun fun fun fun
(It’s gonna be alright, Saturday night)
Make love until the morning come
