Chorus: 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 till morning light, Lousiana 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, Lousiana Saturday night.
Chorus
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, Lousiana Saturday night.
Chorus
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, Lousiana Saturday night
