Jerry Garcia
One More Saturday Night (Live at The Spectrum, Philadelphia, September 21, 1972)
[Verse 1]
Went down to the mountain, I was drinking some wine
Looked up into heaven, Lord, I saw a mighty sign
Writ in fire across the heaven, plain as black and white
Get prepared, there's going to be a party tonight
[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Uh-huh, one more Saturday night
Hey, Saturday night
[Verse 2]
Now everybody's dancing down the local armory
With a basement full of dynamite and live artillery
The temperature keeps rising, everybody getting high
Come the rocking stroke of midnight, the whole place going to fly
[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday night
Uh-huh, one more Saturday night now
Woo, Saturday night
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
I turn on Channel Six, the President comes on the news
Says, "I get no satisfaction, that's why I sing the blues
His wife say "Don't get crazy, Lord, you know what to do
Crank up that old Victrola, put on your rocking shoes
[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday Night!
Uh-huh, one more Saturday night
Oh, Saturday night!
[Verse 4]
Then God way up in heaven, for whatever it was worth
Thought he'd have a big old party, thought he'd call it Planet Earth
Don't worry about tomorrow, Lord, you'll know it when it comes
When the rock and roll music meets the rising, shining sun
[Chorus]
Uh-huh, hey, Saturday Night
Uh-huh, one more Saturday night now
Ow, Saturday night
[Instrumental break]
[Outro]
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
Everybody came, boy (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night, woo
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
OW! (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night now, woo
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
OW! (One more Saturday night)
Hanging on a Saturday night (One more Saturday night)
One more Saturday, one more Saturday night, woo
Thank you, we'll see you next time we're in town
