SATURDAY CLOTHES
Gordon Lightfoot
1970



I feel a little blue 'cause I can't sew
There's still a lot of things that I should know
Anyone can guess, I don't know how to press
My Saturday clothes, everyone's going home.

I feel a little sad to watch them leave
But I'll be cool because I don't believe
The happy times are gone, I can still put on
My Saturday clothes, every warm body knows.

I've got to tell you, that was a swell time
So now I'll take the butts away
And put the glasses on the tray
I'll see you all next Saturday.

I feel a little off because they're gone
And if my gal were here I'd still be on
But in a week or two, there's lots of things to do
In my Saturday clothes, everyone's gone home.

I've got to tell you, that was a swell time
So now I'll take the butts away
And put the glasses on the tray
I'll see you all next Saturday.
