Ian Hunter - Saturday Gig lyrics

In '69 was cheaper wine, have a good time, "What's your sign?" Float up to the Roundhouse on a Sunday afternoon In '70 we all agreed, a King's Road flat was the place to be 'Coz Chelsea girls are the best in the world for company In '71 all the people come, lost a few seats but it's just in fun Take the mick out of 'Top of the Pops' - we play better than they do (yeah, year') In '72 was born to lose, we slipped down snakes into yesterday's news I was ready to quit, but Bowie came from Croydon! Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do. We do. Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do. We do. Tickets for the band to see were 12 and 6 a time - a fairy tale. In '73 was a jamboree; we were the dudes and the dudes were we Did you see the suits and the platform boots? (Oh dear, oh Lord, oh my, oh my oh) In '74 on a Broadway tour we didn't much like dressing up no more [Something something something something] but thanks for the 'plane trip!
