intro – 4 bars
verse 1
Well, Saturday night at 8 o’clock I know where I’m gonna go.
I’m gonna pick my baby up and take her to the picture show.
Everybody in the neighbourhood is dressing up to be there too-o-o.
And we’re gonna have a ball, just like we always do.
chorus
Saturday night at the movies, who cares what picture you see?
When you’re hugging with your baby in the last row in the balcony.
verse 2
Well, there’s Technicolor and Cinemascope, a cast out of Hollywood.
And the popcorn from the candy stand makes it all seem twice as good.
There’s always lots of pretty girls with figures they don’t try to hi-i-ide.
But they never can compare to the girl sittin’ by my side.
chorus
Saturday night at the movies, who cares what picture you see?
When you’re hugging with your baby in the last row in the balcony.

Saturday night at the movies, who cares what picture you see?
When you’re hugging with your baby in the last row in the balcony.
