[inaudible]The full version is:
The joint start jumping I'll have fun
Chorus
Gonna rock
Gonna rip it up
Gonna shake it up
Gonna ball it up
Gonna rip it up
And ball tonight
Saturday night and I just got paid
I'm a fool about my money, don't try to save
My heart says "go go, have a time"
Saturday night and I'm feelin' fine
[chorus]
Saturday night and I just got paid
I'm a fool about my money, don't try to save
My heart says "go go, have a time"
Saturday night and I'm feelin' fine
Chorus
I'm gonna rock it up, whoo
Rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
Gonna ball it up
I'm gonna rock it
And ball tonight
Well almost 'bout ten I'll be flying high
I'll rock on out unto the sky
I don't care if I spend my dough
Tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul
[chorus]
