Hey you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow
Kick off your shoes and throw 'em on the floor
Dance in the kitchen 'til morning light
Louisiana Saturday night
Waiting in the front yard sitting on a log
Single-shot rifle and a one-eyed dog
Yonder come the kinfolk, in the moonlight
Louisiana Saturday night
My brother Bill and my other brother Jack
Belly full of beer and a possum in a sack
Fifteen kids in the front porch light
Louisiana Saturday night
Kin folks leave and the kids get fed
Me and my woman, gonna sneak off to bed
We'll have a little fun when we turn out the light
Louisiana Saturday night
