Happened On A Saturday Night (Susie Q)

(album: Growing Up Is Getting Old - 2009)

Well Bobby's out with Susie Q
And Larry's here trying to down a few cold ones
Just to get her off his mind
He's drinking turkey like it's water
If the bar had something harder he'd be on it
In the blink of an eye

Well just about then Susie Q walked in with that boy Bobby
Holding her hand
And some were scared to death and some held their breath but not a person there
Didn't understand

[Chorus:]
It's all about love
One don't, one does
And that's just the way it is
One heart's moving on
One heart's holding strong
And one's left on the fence
Gonna be a Sunday morning first light
Grapevine telling lies
Face to face deny
What happened on Saturday night

Then Larry called the waitress over
tipped her a twenty just to hold her
and Susie caught it out of the corner of her eye
She left Bobby there standing all alone empty-handed
as the band played "Why Lady Why"

[Chorus]

Ol' Bobby's aim was true as he knocked out Larry's tooth
And Susie Q startin cussing Bobby out
She told Larry that she loved him
On the floor as she hugged him
And the waitress bought Bobby a round

She said...

It's all about love
One don't one does
And that's just the way it is
One heart's moving on
One heart's holdin strong
And one's left on the fence
Gonna be a Sunday morning first light
Grapevine telling lies
Face to face deny
What happened on Saturday...

Sunday morning first light
Grapevine telling lies
Face to face deny
What happened on Saturday night

Grapevine telling lies
Face to face deny
What happened on Saturday night

Sunday morning first light
Face to face deny
What happened on Saturday night

Hey Larry, I found your tooth.
