Another Saturday Night

Here's one of Sam's songs, covered really well by Cat Stevens:

Another Saturday Night

Sam Cooke

Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody,

I got some money cause I just got paid,

Oh, how I wish I had someone to talk to,

I'm in an awful way.

I got in town a month ago,

And I seen a lot 'o girls since then,

If I could meet 'em, I could get 'em,

But as yet I haven't met 'em,

That's how I'm in the state I'm in.

Another fella told me,

He had a sister who looked just fine,

Instead of bein' my deliverance,

She had a strange resemblance,

To a cat name of Frankenstein, Oh No-oh!

INSTRUMENTAL (Based on CHORUS)

It's hard on a fella,

When he don't know his way around,

If I don't find me a honey,

To help me spend my money,

I'm gonna have to blow this town.

CHORUS (repeat) fade

--

"You need the dark to see the stars."
