[Verse 1]
There's a Gbig wharfy pub by the Dsus4banks of the Gbay,
Cadd9Out in the west side of GAdelDaide.
In an Gold smoky room where the Dsus4bands used to Gplay,
I reCadd9member the sweat and the Gnoise we Dmade.D  
[Pre Chorus 1]
And we Amjumped on the tables and Emcrashed through the Cadd9doors,
As you Gwalked through the Dbar your feet Cadd9stuck to the floor,
And the Amboys loved the music but the Emgirls wanted Cadd9more.
[Break]
Dsus4 D
[Verse 2]
Then GTulie and Suzie would Dsus4spin 'cross the Gfloor,
They Cadd9worked hard they played hard with Gnothing to Dprove.
But they Gheld our attention when Dsus4they would cut Gloose,
She's a Cadd9big girl in all the right Gplaces Dnude.
[Pre Chorus 2]
And I Amplayed in the band and was Empart of the Cadd9gang,
And they Gall stomped their Dfeet every Cadd9time that we sang.
And they Ambroke all the windows when the Emclosing bell Cadd9rang.
[Refrain]
Another Gnight Din the AmLargs Pier Cadd9Hotel,
Who Gcares if our Dfuture ain't Ambright.
With a Ggirl on your Darm, the Cadd9world was a GSaturday Dsus4night.D  
[Verse 3]
I reGmember big Dylan, he was Dsus4vicious but Gfair,
When he Cadd9walked in the bar he would Gfill up the Ddoor.
If you're Glooking for troubles, you'd Dsus4soon find it thereG,
SomeCadd9times you'd get more than you've Gasked Dfor.
[Pre Chorus 3]
And Amsome nights the fighting burst Emout in the Cadd9street,
When a Gfool and is Dfriends would get Cadd9knocked off their feet, 
And we Amwouldn't back down 'till the Emlast one was Cadd9beat.
[Refrain]
Another Gnight Din the AmLargs Pier Cadd9Hotel,
Who Gcares if our Dfuture ain't Ambright.
With a Ggirl on your Darm, the Cadd9world was a GSaturday Dsus4night.D  
[Bridge]
And we Cadd9laughed and Gdrank till we fell, 
Then we'd Cadd9get up and do it Gagain.
Cadd9Lost in the City of GChurches, the City of DPain.
[Verse 4] 
When I Gcome back to town and I'd Dsus4drive through the Gbay,
Re-Cadd9living the days I reGmember so Dwell.
Well there's Gjust a facade where the Dsus4band used to Gplay,
They Cadd9tore it all down to build Gone more moDtel.
[Pre Chorus 4]
And the Ambuildings might crumble but the Emmemories Cadd9last,
GThink of the DWild times that Cadd9ended too fast.
And the Amold friends I lost who once Emcovered my Cadd9ass.
[Refrain]
Another Gnight Din the AmLargs Pier Cadd9Hotel,
Who Gcares if our Dfuture ain't Ambright.
With a Ggirl on your Darm, the Cadd9world was a GSaturday Dsus4night.D

She's a big girl in all the right places nude.

[Pre Chorus 2]

With a girl on your arm, the world was a Saturday night.
