It seems like a dream now, it was so long a-go
The moon burned so bright and the time went so slow
And I swore that I loved her and gave her a ring
The blue-bird was high on the - wing
What-ev-er hap-pened to Sat-ur-day night
Find-ing a sweet-heart and hold-ing her tight?
- - She said, 'Tell me, oh, tell me, was I al-right?'
What-ev-er hap-pened to Sat-ur-day night?
The years brought the rail-road It ran by my door
Now there's boards on the win-dows And dust on the floor
And she pas-ses the time at an-oth-er man's side
And I pass the time with my pride
What a tan-gled web we weave Go 'round with cir-cum-stance
- Some-bo-dy show me how to tell the danc-er from the dance
- - INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
. . . . . . .
Oh woh, - what ev-er hap-pened to Sat-ur-day night?
Choo-sin' a friend and los-in' a fight
- - She said, 'Tell me, oh, tell me, are you al-right?' What-ev-er hap-pened
to Sat-ur-day night? woh... What-ev-er hap-pened to Sat-ur-day night?
