Well, you can see these people At the end of every working day Down at the local bar Or maybe hanging out in some dark cafe Down on the waterfront As the big grey boats come steaming on home It's anybody's guess Where the night begins and the party ends He says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand 'Cause it's Saturday night in the Harbour Town And this city lights up when the sun goes down It's Saturday night in the Harbour Town" And anywhere you look There's a smooth operator just playing the game Got the blue jeans, baby, His hands in his pockets and the same old lines Looking for a good time Waiting 'til the ship comes in He says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand 'Cause it's Saturday night in the Harbour Town And this city lights up when the sun goes down It's Saturday night in the Harbour Town" On the corner of the street where it meets the lane There's a message on the wall near the telephone It says, "honey, you can call. call me anytime." He says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand 'Cause it's Saturday night in the Harbour Town And this city lights up when the sun goes down It's Saturday night in the Harbour Town"
