Lyr Add: Songs by the Proclaimers

From: Paul

I'm looking for two songs by a couple of Irish or British brothers. They had a fairly popular record in about '89 or '90. The big bar hit off the album was "500 Miles". But I'm looking for "Oh Jean" and "It's Saturday Night".

Any help would be appreciated.

IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT (The Proclaimers)

It's Saturday night, I'm feeling on song
I think I'm alright, I know I'm all wrong
The drink that I had three hours ago
Has been joined by fourteen others
In a steady flow
So let me walk straight, don't let me feel pain
I'm gonna scratch cars with my keys again
Cos when I go home and fall on my bed
If it doesn't leave my stomach it'll split my head

The Proclaimers

OH JEAN (The Proclaimers)

I'd never been lucky with girls I confess
Don't know who to blame for my lack of success
Cause even with ones up the back of a bus
There was always the risk of a slap in the puss

But Jean, oh Jean ou let me get lucky with you

The first time I met you it did cross my mind
The next time I saw you there wasn't the time
The third time I saw you I thought that I would
The fourth time I met you I knew that I could

But Jean, you let me get lucky with you

I love her

I want you forever I want you for good
So I'm gonna treat you the way that I should
For your sould and body my heart's gonna pound
Even after the day that I'm laid in the ground

Cause Jean you let me get lucky with you

Love her
I love her

Ah-HAH! The Proclaimers! I've been trying to remember their name for the last month. Thanks for the lyrics, guys. The Mudcatters have provided quick results yet again.

OK forget it. Brack, obviously you were faster. To apologize for postin double I only can mention my 14.4 modem and therefore my aversion of reloading a page every few minutes...Bye, Harald

"I'm looking for two songs by a couple of Irish or British brothers"

The duo called The Proclaimers are Scottish. From the so called Kingdom of Fife :-)
