If it's one of those nights a night that's happy and wild
If you pole the pirogue come for a many a mile
If you're a singing a song feast on gravy and rice
I know what that is a Louisisana Saturday night
A Louisiana Saturday night everybody feeling alright
There ain't nothing like a Louisiana Saturday night

If it's one of those nights everybody go hog wild
All the little girls you see wear a pretty cajun smile
The fiddle and accordian play an old song happy and bright
But I know what that is a Louisiana Saturday night

A Louisiana Saturday night...

Make like a Mardi Gras dance till broad daylight
Bet all our money then on a dog or a chicken fight
The day after Friday next week everything'll be alright
Cause we'll have us another Louisiana Saturday night
A Louisiana Saturday night...
A Louisiana Saturday night...
