Lyrics :

Big fat saturday night
And everybody's got a date but me

Ronnie loves Connie
Tutti loves Frutti
Ricky loves Vickie
They're all goin' steady
Well it's a big fat saturday night
And everybody's got a date but me

Frankie loves Barbara
Billy loves Lilly
Betty loves Freddy
They're all goin' steady
Well it's a big fat saturday night
And everybody got a date but me

All the guys'n'dolls are han in hand
Strollin' tonight to the record hop
They're gonna rip it up to the jukebox hop
While I twiddle my thumbs like a highscool flop

...Repeat the first...
