Sam Cooke Lyrics
 | | One of soul's most important voices and most tragic figures, Sam Cooke was one of the early soul singers to make the transition from gospel to the secular world of soul music. Cooke was the son of a Mississippi preacher, and he spent his youth in church choirs and gospel groups. He joined the Soul Stirrers in 1950 and recorded and toured with the gospel group for six years before making his first foray into secular pop. His first big hit was the perenniel (and self-penned) hit "You Send Me" -- a pop confection that shimmered with sincerity and the hint of grit that surfaced more prominently as Cooke's artistry matured. If you don't know Sam Cooke, you probably know his music: "Bring It On Home To Me," "Another Saturday Night," "Chain Gang," and the prescient "A Change Is Gonna Come." As the hits piled up, Cooke was finding himself a major crossover success, with powerful fanbases across black and white audiences alike. In 1964, at the height of his career, Cooke was killed in circumstances that were never fully explained. Theories about why he was shot to death continue but Sam Cooke's artistry hremains undisputed. |

Sam Cooke Song Lyric:
Another Saturday Night
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause i just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way
I got in town a month ago, I seen a lotta girls since then
If I could meet 'em I could get 'em but as yet I haven't met 'em
That's why I'm in the shape I'm in
Here another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way
Another fella told me he had a sister who looked just fine
Instead of being my deliverance, she had a strange resemblance
to a cat named Frankenstein
Here's another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
How I wish I had some chick to talk to
I'm in an awful way
[Here it is another weekend and I ain't got nobody
Man if I was back home I'd be swinging
Two chicks on my arm
Aww yeah
Listen to me huh]
It's hard on a fella, when he don't know his way around
If I don't find me a honey to help me spend my money
I'm gonna have to blow this town
Here it's another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
How I wish I had some chick to talk to
I'm in an awful way
(chorus to fade)
Get This Ringtone
