(R. Meisner, D. Henley, G. Frey, B. Leadon)
Seems like a dream now it was so long ago,
The moon burned so bright and the stars were so low,
And I swore that I loved you and gave you a ring.
The bluebird was high on the wing.
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
Finding a sweetheart, and holding her tight.
She said "Tell me, whoa tell me, was I alright?"
Whatever happened to Sataurday night?
The years brought the railroad. It ran by my door
There were boards on the windows and dust on the floor
And she passes the time by another man's side,
I pass the time with my bride.
What a tangled web we weave, go round with circumstance.
Someone show me how to tell the dancer from the dance.
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
Choosing a friend, and losing a fight.
She said, "Tell me, whoa tell me, are you alright?"
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
