Place capo on the first fret

Verse.
                            
She's savin' all her money tryin' to get ahead
                                             
But all the luck in the world won't keep her baby fed
                                  
The boss is on her back and it's gettin her down
                                        
she's waitin' for the one she loves to come around.
                                 
He's diggin up concrete while everybody sleeps
                                
Fillin' in the cracks in these lonely streets
                                        
she said, "don't you worry honey, it'll be ok, 
                                            
cause one of these days we're gonna fly away"

Chorus
                                        /
there's only one Saturday night in every week
,                                    
Sunday's for recoverin,five days for discoverin',
                                   
people walkin' down the same street,
                                                 
you know there's only one Saturday night in every week.

   

verse
                        
He's a bona fide rebel tryin' to get ahead
                            
but real life's got him and now he's gettin bored
                         
he barely makes a livin pickin' up stuff
                                  
when all he really wants to do is kick up the dust
                         
she spends all her days talKin on the phone
                           
tryin to sell you somethin you don't wanna own
                                  
she's dreamin of a break from the daily grind
                                   
but the boss's got her workin overtime

chorus
                   
(You know) there's only one saturday....

Bridge
                          
why won't this world stop turnin around
                                             
why can't i find my feet when i'm fallin down

chorus
                                           
there's only one Saturday night in every week
                                     
Sunday's for recoverin,five days for discoverin',
                              
people walkin' down the same street,
                                                      
you know there's only one Saturday night in every week.
                                                      
you know there's only one saturday night in every week
                                                         
you know there's only one saturday night in every week
