Saturday night and the moon is out
[G]Just shinin' over top of the pines
[G]I'm headin' on down to my baby's house
[G]Gonna take her on a midnight ride
Now I'm on these [Em]backroads winding [C]up at a Kickapoo [G]Creek
[Em]Dancin' and singin' to some [C]good ol' boys like [D]me
Baby, there's a [C]shoo[D]ting [G]star,
That was for [C]me a[D]nd y[G]ou.
So, [C]hold me tight, [G]make that wish, and [C]pray that it comes [D]true.
I ain't [G]sure [D]of [G]much,
But [Em]this [D]I k[C]now -
[Em]I got a diamond in my pocket and my [D]baby's got a heart of [G]gold.
[G]I brought along a little courage and Coleman cooler, Just to help me out
[G]My hands are shaking like a Cambridge rattler,
[G]Nothing's gonna save me now
Mind as well [Em]jump in head first, [C]lay it all on the [G]line
What am I [Em]worrying about? Never gonna [C]be a more perfect [D]time

(instrumental interlude)
Well I [C]didn't have money for a [G]Broadway show,
but the [C]crickets are singing to the [G]radio,
and we[Em]'ve got tickets -
on the very front [D]row.
