It was sung by Al Jolson on an early vinyl recording. The lyrics are patchy in my memory So I hope someone has a better source than my dim recollection. Where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? Every Saturday night they were not in the room and on Sunday morning they'd come staggering home. On this Island lived wild men and cannibals brimmin, And where there are wild men there must be wild women So where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? I remember more but I'm not sure it is complete so I'll wait and see if there is a better source out there for you. Bo |

Carusoe go w/ Fri. on Sat. nite From: GUEST,Old Jolson Fan Over a thousand years, or maybe more Out on an island on a lonely shore Robinson Crusoe landed one fine day No rent to pay No wife to obey. His good man Friday was his only friend He didn't borrow or lend. They built a little hut Lived there till Friday, but Saturday night it was shut. Where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? Every Saturday night they would start in to roam And on Sunday morning they'd come staggering home. They went hunting for rabbits when the weather grew colder But Crusoe came home with a hare on his shoulder. Now, where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? Robinson Crusoe was a good old scout. Robinson Crusoe knew his way about. He'd go out hunting chickens now and then But he knew when He was chasing a hen. Once he told Friday, "You must stay at home I've got to go out alone". Friday felt very blue He said, "It's wrong of you Couldn't you fix it for two?" Where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? One fine Saturday night they had nothing to do So they started counting all the girlies they knew. Friday counted to thirteen, and Crusoe said, "Brother, You know, thirteen's unlucky. Let's go get another." So, where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? Where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? Every Saturday night they would start in to roam And on Sunday morning they'd come staggering home. On this island lived wild men and cannibal crimmin And you know where there are wild men, there must be wild women. So, where did Robinson Crusoe go with Friday on Saturday night? |

He has been performing it for at least 45 years that I know of. It is one of many interesting songs that he does. I've heard that it was one of the first songs that Al Jolson recorded, but I can't say for sure. |

Carusoe go w/ Fri. on Sat. nite From: The Fooles Troupe Something about this song (without hearing the real melody) disturbingly suggests the song sung by Eddie in 'Rocky Horror' - whatever happened to rock and roll.... Sorry... I'll leave now... |
