Riding on a lucky wheel of seventeen I think I'm gonna live to be 103 Feel like wild card -- what you say A slice of the night's gonna come my way Walking through the city I'm a king of surprise My midnight champagne's ready on ice It's Saturday night, I got nerves of steel I can roll all night on a roulette wheel Let the night roll on I'm looking for hell Let the night roll on I'm making a kill It's Saturday night I waited so long Let the night roll on Playing along with the rest of the world Saxophone women...satisfied girls I'm a wound-up string on a violin The future's gonna take me where I've never been I could be naked Sunday with nothing to wear I wouldn't know it, I wouldn't care It's Saturday night, I got nerves of steel I can roll all night on a roulette wheel
