You can just sustain the 4 chords or you can strum it in rythem.
Both of the ways sound good. On the records it's just the 4 chords sustained

Variation on the intro riff. Guitar 2 plays this as backing during the

Apparently I'm not good enough to tab the lead part on this... I tried a few hours,
but decided I sound better improvising something on this than tabbing this one out.
If anyone has the lead part, mail me, or comment me, I will give you full credit...
Or even if you don't want it to appear on mxtabs, I'm really curious!

Lyrics
------
It's getting late I haven't seen my date
So tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer
My old man's drunker than a bar full of winos
And his old lady she don't care
My sister lookin cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a woman to see me right
I could use a little muscle to get what I need
I'll drink a fifth of jack and scream out "She's with me!"
A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats from the bottom of a glass
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday...
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday...
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday night's alright
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday...
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday...
Saturday...Saturday...Saturday night's alright
