TV ACRES: My Songs > "Rougher" by Jerome A. Holst

(Verse)	It's Saturday night and I'm sitting at home Calling all my friends on the telephone I say pick up some pretzels, pick up some beer We're gonna have a party, get on over here We're gonna grab some tables, and grab some chairs Sit in front of the TV and start to stare Cause don't you know the best things in life are free Like watching old movies on the TV screen
(Chorus)	It's Saturday night at the movies We're sitting home having fun Watching old movies on the late, late show Just waiting for the morning sun It's Saturday night at the movies And those black and white reruns Are bringing back old-time memories when Hollywood was young
(Bridge)	There's Johnny Weissmuller as Tarzan swinging on the vine Look out here comes Boris Karloff as old friend Frankenstein There's Bob and Bing on the road chasing Dorothy Lamour And John Wayne single-handedly winning all the wars
	Repeat Chorus
(Bridge 2)	Jimmy Cagney's "You dirty rat" echoes near and far As Gloria Swanson takes her close-up on Sunset Boulevard Humphrey Bogart as Philip Marlowe tracks down clues to crimes And Mae West invites us all to come up and see her sometime
	Repeat Chorus
