Down in the valley of the feverIn the hills of TennesseeWell, we're sifting through that asphalt barnyardJust a-looking for that be-bop beat'Cause we sleep all day, play all nightMan that ain't no lieWe can't tell what day it isIt just seems like one long Saturday nightWell, it's something in the waterOr something in the airSomething to them effigies on that street down thereCause we sleep all day, play all nightMan that ain't no lieWe can't tell what day it isIt just seems like one long Saturday nightYou know I ain't got nothingThat thirteen bucks won't buyBut when I get me a little money babyI'm gonna take me a little rideSix more months of nighttime, I'll take six months moreI'll keep taking whatever it takes'Til I can't take no moreBecause that lonesome ghost is calling meOne day I'll have to fightUntil then I'll just keep running through myOne long Saturday nightYou know I ain't got nothingThat thirteen bucks won't buyBut when I get me a little money babyI'm gonna take me a little rideRepeat 1st verseYeah, it seems like one long Saturday nightIt seems like one long Saturday night
