Blue Barry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
little girl get your dancing shoes.
Your gold sation jacket and the silvery blues.
And it'll be alright
dancing on a Saturday night.
On well the jukebox a' playin' like a one man band.
It's the only kind of music
We're gonna be alright
dancin' on a Saturday night.
We'll the roller coaster
gotta make the most and dance.
Dance
dance the night away.
Helter skelter maybe I can help her dance.
Dance
dance the night away.
Oo we co my blue jean baby
she's the queen of them all.
She's the only one who makes me wanna rock and roll.
Don't wanna say good night
dancing on a Saturday night.
Well the roller coaster...
Oo we...
I wanna hold her tight
dancing on a Saturday night.
I'm gonna hold her tight
dancing on a Sat. night
(Oo watch her dancing

Blue jean Baby (watch her dancing)
Blue jean Baby (watch her dancing)
Dance dance dance (watch her dancing)
