Savin' Up for Saturday Night

music & lyrics by Richard Levinson

from Savin' Up for Saturday Night

 
EVERYBODY KNOWS YOU GOTTA SAVE YOUR DOUGH
'CAUSE YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT SOMEDAY
SO I WORK HARD ALL WEEK
AND I STASH MY CASH AWAY
I GOT A SIMPLE STRATEGY
I KEEP ONE GOAL IN SIGHT
I SAVE MY MONEY CAREFULLY
SO IT WILL BE THERE FOR ME
WHEN SOMEDAY COMES ALONG THIS SATURDAY NIGHT

I'M SAVING UP FOR SATURDAY NIGHT
THAT'S THE BEST THAT I CAN DO
ECONOMICALLY SPEAKIN' I'M JUST WORKING FOR THE WEEKEND
WHEN I HIT THE TOWN WITH YOU
WHEN FRIDAY'S HERE IT'S VERY CLEAR
MY FUTURE'S LOOKIN' BRIGHT
I'M A MAN WITH A FINANCIAL PLAN
I'M SAVING UP FOR SATURDAY NIGHT

I DON'T PLAY THE MARKET
LIKE OTHER GUYS I KNOW
MY TAB DOWN AT THE HONKY-TONK
THAT'S MY PORTFOLIO
I DON'T HAVE AN ACCOUNTANT
BUT, BABY THAT'S ALRIGHT
HE'D JUST SAY NOW CALL YOUR GIRL
YOU CAN TAKE HER OR A WHIRL
'CAUSE YOU GOT JUST ENOUGH FOR SATURDAY NIGHT
