Went to see a movie show   Found myself an empty row   Thought the show was just alright   Same old Saturday night      Then I made the usual stop   Coffee at the coffee shop   Friendly face nowhere in sight   Same old Saturday night      I really thought the papers I bought   Would help me forget you for a while   Believe me honey the funnies weren't funny   They didn't even make me smile      How I wish you'd lift the phone   Fun is fun but not alone   'Til you let me hold you tight   Same old Saturday night      I really thought the papers I bought   Would help me forget you for a while   But believe me honey the funnies weren't funny   They didn't even make me smile      How I wish you'd lift that phone   Fun is fun but not alone   'Til you let me hold you tight   Same old Saturday night      Only your face can help me erase   That same old Saturday night
