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

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 last row in the balcony



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 hide

But they never can compare

To the girl sittin' by my side
