Harbour Town - Icehouse

Well, you can see these people

At the end of every working day

Down at the local bar

Or maybe hanging out in some dark cafe

Down on the waterfront

As the big grey boats come steaming on home

It’s anybody’s guess

Where the night begins and the party ends

He says «come on baby, take a hold of my hand

'Cause it’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town

And this city lights up when the sun goes down

It’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town»

And anywhere you look

There’s a smooth operator just playing the game

Got the blue jeans, baby

His hands in his pockets and the same old lines

Looking for a good time

Waiting 'til the ship comes in

He says «come on baby, take a hold of my hand

'Cause it’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town

And this city lights up when the sun goes down

It’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town»

On the corner of the street where it meets the lane

There’s a message on the wall near the telephone

It says, «honey, you can call call me anytime»

He says «come on baby, take a hold of my hand

'Cause it’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town

And this city lights up when the sun goes down

It’s Saturday night in the Harbour Town»
