     G
It's getting late have you seen my mates
   F
Ma tell me when the boys get here
     C
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
         G
Want to get a belly full of beer

G
My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
       F
And my old lady she don't care
   C
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
  G                               Dm7
A handful of grease in her hair

C
Don't give us none of your aggravation
Bb
We had it with your discipline
F
Saturday night's alright for fighting
C
Get a little action in
C
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Bb
Gonna set this dance alight
F
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
C                                     G
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright
Eb  Bb  F   C
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

G   Dm F  G  Dm F

Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!"

A couple of the sound that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass
