Your mama says that through the week
you can't go out with me
but when the weekend comes around
she knows where we will be

Kissing in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and i

holding hands together (yeah)
smooching in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and i
we could stay forever you and i
hugging and a kissing in the back row of the movies

Every night i pick you up from school
cause your my steady date
but from monday through to friday night
i leave you at the gate (yeah)
you know we can't have too much fun
til all your homeworks done
but when the weekend comes
You knows where we will be

Kissing in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and i
holding hands together (yeah)
smooching in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and i
we could stay forever you and i

hugging and a kissing in the back row of the movies

i sit alone at night and watch tv
but i still think of you
and i am in the game for that
we share a junk or two
you know friends don't knock on my door
on friday night any more
Cause when the weekend comes
They know where i will be

Kissing in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and i
holding hands together (o yeah)
smooching in the back row
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and i
we could stay forever you and i
hugging and a kissing in the back row of the movies
yeah
hugging and a kissing in the back row of the movies
