Subject: "Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night" - Rocky Horror Picture Show
Hi,
Here are (as promised) the lyrics and chords to :
"Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night"/"Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)"
I got the lyrics from cs.uwp.edu (though I edited them a little) and
worked the chords out mostly by just playing my guitar like a bass along
with the CD - I hope they're correct! The sax solo part is good to muck
around with - just play something in C# and then later in D over the
top of the last 8 "Hot Patootie"s.
The version of the song that I worked this out from was on :
"The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD
(Music from the original soundtrack of the
20th century fox presentation of the Michael
White/Lou Adler Production)
In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry
- not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!
COMING SOON : "Sweet Transvestite"

WHATEVER HAPPENNED TO SATURDAY NIGHT / HOT PATOOTIE (BLESS MY SOUL)
( Eddie )
( Intro : )
( )
Whatever happened to Saturday night,
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright?
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine.
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go,
And listen to the music on the radio;
A saxophone was playing in a rock 'n roll show.
You climbed in the back seat, you really had a good time.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
( Sax solo : )
( )
( Middle break : )
My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled.
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt.
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
And she'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine.
Get back in front, put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
With your arms around your girl you'd try to sing along.
It felt pretty good. Woo You really had a good time.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
( Sax solo : )
( )
( Sax solo continues over chorus... )
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
