[Chorus]
Mama said, she said it's gonna be alright
Yes she did, well come to bed and turn out the light
She's sleeping there, she's dreaming through her life
Yes she is

[Verse 1]
Well you know you've done no wrong
All you done is sing this song
You sing this song, yeah
On a Saturday night[x2]
Everything is alright, wooh
That's when the bad man meets his fate
Sitting there, you're feeling only second rate
You're sorry now, you've come a little bit too late
Yes you did

[Bridge]
But when you come around
You only bring you down
You feel a clown, yeah
On a Saturday night[x2]
Everything is alright, yeah

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Well you know you've done your best
All you need's a little rest
You've done your best, yes
On a Saturday night[x2]
Everything is alright[x2]
On a Saturday night[x2]
Everything is alright[x2]

[Outro]
Saturday night[x12]

Journey is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1973, composed of former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred while fronted by vocalist Steve Perry, from 1978 until the group’s disbandment in 1987. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which in 2009 became the top-selling track in iTunes history amongst songs not released in the 21st century. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band’s eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, “Open Arms”. Its 1983 follow-up album, Frontiers, was almost as successful in the United States, reaching No. 2 and spawning several successful singles; it broadened the band’s appeal in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart. Journey enjoyed a successful reunion with Perry in the mid-1990s and later regrouped with a series of lead singers.
