Lyrics

well, you can see these people, at the end of every working day, down at the local bar, or maybe hanging out in some dark cafe, down on the waterfront, as the big grey boats come steaming on home, it's anybody's guess, where the night begins and the party ends, he says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand, 'cause it's saturday night in the harbour town, and this city lights up when the sun goes down, it's saturday night in the harbour town", and anywhere you look, there's a smooth operator just playing the game, got the blue jeans, baby, his hands in his pockets and the same old lines, looking for a good time, waiting 'til the ship comes in, he says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand, 'cause it's saturday night in the harbour town, and this city lights up when the sun goes down, it's saturday night in the harbour town", on the corner of the street where it meets the lane, there's a message on the wall near the telephone, it says, "honey, you can call. call me anytime.", he says "come on baby, take a hold of my hand, 'cause it's saturday night in the harbour town, and this city lights up when the sun goes down, it's saturday night in the harbour town"
