Lyrics
(CHORUS)
ON SATURDAY NIGHT HES ELVIS
HE COMBS HIS HAIR BACK AND SWIVELS HIS HIPS
HE SINGS JAIL HOUSE ROCK UNDER THE SPOT LIGHT
GIVIN' HER THAT ELVIS LIP
SHE NEVER TAKES HER EYES OFF HIM
HE IS THE "KING" OF HER DREAMS
SIX NIGHTS A WEEK HE'S JUST WHAT HE IS
BUT ON SATURDAY NIGHT HE'S ELVIS
HE PLAYED GUITAR FROM MOBILE TO TEXAS
FROM SIXTY SOMETHIN', THO' HE DON'T RECALL
HE JUST REMEMBERS THE NIGHT HE FELL IN LOVE WITH RAMONA
AND JUST HOW FAR IN LOVE A MAN CAN FALL
SHE HAD BIG DARK EYES AND A REAL WARM SMILE
THEY NEVER LIVED ANOTHER MINUTE ALONE
SHE JUST HOPPED UP IN THE VAN AND THEY DROVE AWAY
THEY MADE EACH OTHER THEIR HOME
SO THEY BOUGHT THIS OL'BEACH BAR BACK IN 74
TWENTY-THREE YEARS NOW HE TENDS BAR AND SHE WORKS THE FLOOR
BUT AT THE END OF THE WEEK HE TAKES THE STAGE
AND SHE TAKES THE COVER AT THE DOOR
COAL BLACK HAIR WITH A SWEET WARM STYLE
SOMETHIN' EVERY SOUTHERN LADY LOOKS FOR
