Lyrics

Going to the club on a Saturday night, going to see them boys hit the stage

Excitedly heading to the club on a Saturday night to watch the performers on stage

They got whiskey, fine women, and all the good dancers, I just want to hear the guitars Play

The club offers alcohol, attractive women, and great dancers, but the singer's primary interest lies in listening to the guitar music

Then a tap on my shoulder from a pretty little lady, looking hot as a summer day

A beautiful woman attracts the singer's attention by tapping on his shoulder

She don't say nothing, just grabs my hand says darling, twirl me around this way

Without speaking, she takes the initiative to dance with the singer

When the dancing night is through, just a past 2, I ask want to do it again?

After dancing until the early hours, the singer asks if they can repeat the experience

She said sorry honey baby, I'm a nice lady but you and me are just friends

The woman declines the offer, stating that despite being nice, they're only friends

I pull myself together, I aint looking for a lover, so I say maybe I'll see you around

The singer composes himself, clarifying that he wasn't seeking a romantic relationship

I said I'm here for the band, I hope you understand, I aint here to mess around

Emphasizing his interest in the band's music and his lack of interest in casual affairs

So she comes a little closer, she says I want to know you

The woman tries to get closer and know the singer better

Maybe you can show me around?

She suggests the singer could show her around

She said I know a nice place, with a hundred-dollar dinners

She knows of an upscale place with expensive dinners and quieter music

And they don't play music this loud

Contrasting the loud music of the club with the quieter ambiance of the place she mentions

She said I don't like this bar, the beer is kind of stale, I'm not a big fan of the blues

Expressing her dislike for the current bar's atmosphere and music genre

I said sorry honey baby, you're a nice lady but you and me are just friends

Reiterating that despite her being nice, they're only friends

Going to the club on a Saturday night, going to see them boys hit the stage

Repeating the excitement of heading to the club for the performance

They got whiskey, fine women, and all the good dancers, I just want to hear the guitars Play

Reiterating the singer's preference for listening to guitar music amidst the other attractions at the club

Then a tap on my shoulder from a pretty little lady, looking hot as a summer day

A similar encounter to the earlier one, where the woman initiates dancing

She don't say nothing, just grabs my hand says darling, twirl me around this way

Repeating the non-verbal initiation of dancing by the woman

When the dancing night is through, just a past 2, I ask want to do it again?

Again, the singer asks if they can repeat the experience of dancing together

She said sorry honey baby, I'm a nice lady, you and me are just friends

The woman declines once more, stating they are just friends despite her being nice
