Rip It Up


(Blackwell - Marascaleo)





* Well it's Saturday night and I just got paid
Fool about my money don't try to save
My heart says go, go
Have a time 'cause it's Saturday night babe
And I'm feeling fine
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna ball it up
I'm gonna rip it up
At the ball tonight


Well, I got me a date and I won't be late
I picked her up in my "88"
Shag it on down by the social hall
When the joint starts jumping
I'll have a ball


I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna ball it up
I'm gonna rip it up
At the ball tonight


Along about 10 I'll be flying high
Walk on out in the open sky
But I don't care if I spend my dough
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul


I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna ball it up
I'm gonna rip it up
At the ball tonight


* Repeat

    'Cause it's Saturday nite and I just got paid
    A    (Tacet)
    Fool about my money don't try to save
       A     (Tacet)
    My heart says go, go
                            A        (Tacet)
    Have a time 'cause it's Saturday nite
    And I'm feelin' fine
              D9
    I'm gonna rip it up
              A
    I'm gonna rock it up
              D9
    I'm gonna shake it up
              A
    I'm gonna ball it up
              E9           D9    (Tacet)
    I'm gonna rip it up
               A
    And ball tonite
    I got a date and I won't be late
    Pick her up in my '88'
    Shag it on down to the union hall
    When the music starts jumpin'
    I'll have a ball
    Along about 10 I'll be flying high
    Rocking on out into the sky
    I don't care if I spend my gold
    'Cause tonite I'm gonna be one happy soul
