The Heart Of Saturday Night
Cole Holly Lyrics

Well you gassed her up
You've filled up your car with gas

Behind the wheel
You're driving

With your arm around your sweet one
You are holding your lover close to you

In your oldsmobile
You're driving an Oldsmobile car

Barrelin' down the boulevard
You're driving quickly down the main street

You're looking for the heart of saturday night
You're searching for the center of excitement on a Saturday evening

And you got paid on friday
You received payment on Friday for your work

And your pockets are jinglin'
You have money jingling in your pockets

And you see the lights
You see the lights of the city

You get all tinglin' cause you're cruisin' with a 6
Your car is a 6 (rating) and you feel excited about it

Then you comb your hair
You groom yourself by combing your hair

Shave your face
You shave your face to look neat

Tryin' to wipe out ev'ry trace
You try to erase any signs of the hard work week from your face

All the other days
The weekdays

In the week you know that this'll be the saturday
You know that Saturday is the best day of the week

You're reachin' your peak
You are feeling your best

Stoppin' on the red
You stop at the red traffic light

You're goin' on the green
You drive on when the traffic light turns green

'cause tonight'll be like nothin' you've ever seen
Tonight will be an unforgettable experience

And you're barrelin' down the boulevard
You're still driving quickly down the main street

Lookin' for the heart of saturday night
Still searching for the center of excitement on a Saturday evening

Tell me is the crack of the poolballs, neon buzzin'?
You wonder if the sound of pool balls hitting each other is heard amidst buzzing neon lights

Telephone's ringin'; it's your second cousin
Your second cousin is calling you on the phone

Is it the barmaid that's smilin' from the corner of her eye?
You wonder if the barmaid is smiling at you from the corner of her eye

Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye.
Your eye is filled with a tear of bittersweet emotion

Makes it kind of quiver down in the core
You feel a shiver in your core due to the emotional sensations you're experiencing

'cause you're dreamin' of them saturdays that came before
You're reminiscing about past Saturdays

And now you're stumblin'
You're stumbling

You're stumblin' onto the heart of saturday night
You have stumbled upon the center of excitement on a Saturday night

Well you gassed her up
You've filled up your car with gas

And you're behind the wheel
You're driving

With your arm around your sweet one
You are holding your lover close to you again

In your oldsmobile
You're still driving the Oldsmobile car

Barrellin' down the boulevard,
You're still driving quickly down the main street

You're lookin' for the heart of saturday night
You're still searching for the center of excitement on a Saturday night

Is the crack of the poolballs, neon buzzin'?
You're still wondering if you'll hear the sound of pool balls hitting each other amidst buzzing neon lights

Telephone's ringin'; it's your second cousin
Your second cousin is still calling you on the phone

And the barmaid is smilin' from the corner of her eye
You see the barmaid smiling at you from the corner of her eye

Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye.
Still feeling bittersweet emotions that bring tears to your eyes

Makes it kind of special down in the core
You feel a unique sensation in your core due to the emotional experiences

And you're dreamin' of them saturdays that came before
You're still reminiscing about past Saturdays

It's found you stumblin'
Your emotions have caused you to stumble again

Stumblin' onto the heart of saturday night
You have once again stumbled upon the center of excitement on a Saturday night

And you're stumblin'
You continue to stumble

Stumblin' onto the heart of saturday night
You have stumbled upon the center of excitement on a Saturday night once again
