Lyrics
SATURDAY NIGHT AT TH HONKY TONK (words and music Ed.Higgins)
No nine to five for me,I?m working hard from dusk to dawn
But it?s Saturday nite tonite and I?m getting ready for the honky tonk
Now I?ll be combing back my long black hair and putting my skintight blue jeans on
And my fancy high heeled cowboy boots
Spurs on the back,my hat on my head
(CHOROUS)
At the honky tonk man them country songs are really fine
(hey good lookin whatchya got cookin)
And the girls just swing their hips around
As they dance to the beat of the Jambalya
(sonoffa gun we?re gonna have some fun)
Now I?ll be picking Billy Joe downtown
and Johnny at the corner of the fancy store on fourth
We?ll be drivin that old chevrolet
With the lights flashing bull horns on the front
We?ll be whooping round the town an
Calling all the girls walking round
Cause tonite it?s beer and dancing time
It?s Saturday nite at the honky tonk
At the honky tonk man them country songs are really fine
And the girls just swing their hips around
As they dance to the beat of the Jambalaya
They go now
(Repeat chorous)
