Saturday night and time that I go to bed  Daddy goodnight and Momma goodnight, it's ten  Don't forget, son, to pray  Anything, Dad, you say  I'm gonna pray 'til both my knees are red  CHORUS  Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord  Prayin' for a party  All of my friends are prayin' like prayin' fools  Send us a little jive and we'll be all right  What do we have to do  What do we have to do  Whaat do we have to do, Lord, to get on through  CHORUS  I just can't wait no more  I'm runnin' out that door  God helps those who help themselves to a good time  CHORUS  --------------------------------------------------------
