Same Old Saturday Night Lyrics

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
Till you let me hold you tight
Same old Saturday night

I really thought that 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
Till you let me hold you tight
Same old Saturday night
Only your face can help me erase
That same old Saturday night

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
