EDDIE: Whatever happened to Saturday night
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life and I thought I was divine
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxaphone was blowing on a rock n roll show
And you climbed in the back and you really had a good time
A good time
ALL: Hot Patootie bless my soul
I really love that rock and roll (repeat four times)
EDDIE: My head used to swim from the perfume I smelt
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and thats when I'd melt
And she'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine
Get back in the front and put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song
With your arm around your girl you'd try to sing along.
You felt pretty good cause you'd really had
A good time
ALL: Hot patootie bless my soul
I really love that rock n roll (repeat eight times)
