Bleeding Knees Club Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It was a Saturday night and the stars were out
And I reached for her hand and I held it tight
Oh boy, I held her hand with all my might
I looked and her and I, I couldn't help but smile
I knew I could hang out with her for a little while
So I moved in closer and I, I took a chance
And I asked this girl, "Can I have this dance?"
Hey girls, come on down
Put on your shoes and gather 'round
Oh yeah, it's fine to dance with me
I don't mind how you move
Ooh, as long as you're looking smooth
Oh yeah, it's fine to dance with me
We can swing all night long
Underneath the stars
And when the night's over
We'll make out in our cars
Oh boy, you better watch out, uh
Yeah, I know what you're talking about
Oh yeah, it's fine to dance with me
We can get down real low
We can move oh, so slow
Oh yeah, it's fine to dance with me
We can swing all night long
Underneath the stars
And when the night's over
We'll make out in our cars
We can swing all night long
Underneath the stars
And when the night's over
We'll make out in our cars

So, uh, me and Betty were hanging out by the bleachers and, uh
Me and Betty were casually spending time together near the bleachers
It was a Saturday night and the stars were out
It was a weekend evening with a clear sky filled with stars
And I reached for her hand and I held it tight
I made a move and firmly held her hand
Oh boy, I held her hand with all my might
I gripped her hand tightly, as if trying to convey my strong emotions
I looked at her and I, I couldn't help but smile
Seeing her, I couldn't resist smiling
I knew I could hang out with her for a little while
I felt confident we could spend some quality time together
So I moved in closer and I, I took a chance
With a hint of bravery, I moved closer to her and decided to take a risk
And I asked this girl, 'Can I have this dance?'
Courteously, I asked her if she would like to dance with me
Hey girls, come on down
Girls, join us and come down here
Put on your shoes and gather 'round
Get ready by putting on your shoes and forming a group around us
Oh yeah, it's fine to dance with me
It's perfectly alright to dance with me
I don't mind how you move
I have no preferences for your dancing style
Ooh, as long as you're looking smooth
Just make sure you appear confident and stylish
We can swing all night long
We have the opportunity to swing dance throughout the night
Underneath the stars
In a romantic setting surrounded by the starry sky
And when the night's over
Once the night comes to an end
We'll make out in our cars
We'll engage in passionate kissing inside our vehicles
Oh boy, you better watch out, uh
Hey, you need to be cautious
Yeah, I know what you're talking about
Yes, I understand the topic of discussion
We can get down real low
We can dance with wild enthusiasm
We can move oh, so slow
We can also dance slowly and sensually

This reminds me so much of old school 50's and 60's doo wop and rock'n'roll.
