    Many years ago I danced with a beautiful young British lass in a cafe in a small Mexican beach town while this song wafted through the air. One of the most beautiful moments of my life.
    Today I am 53 years old, a broken down man in a dead end life. Reduced to constant worry and buried in debt, I hear this song again and am washed over by the sad beauty of it all. What happened to that young man so full of life? Was it really me?

      In my younger years, my buddy and I would put on “The Heart of Saturday Night, go out bar hopping, shooting pool, and so on until closing time. Then we would put on the “Ghosts of Saturday Night’, and head over to the Pantry, the Atomic Café, Gorky’s Café, or some other after hours joint for breakfast at 2:30 AM.

    Tom would sometimes appear on 4th St. LB at a bar that was frequented by Bukowski and the two of them would have a drink together. If you were lucky, and you were down at the end of the bar in the shadows, you could hear faint echos of songs to come. This was one of them. It will be there, long after Tom, the bar, & I, have gone. Enjoy.

    I'm an old guy and have followed this magic musician since he started. I like real wordsmiths who tell stories real people can relate to. So far, it seems at least 53 are still waiting for their lives to start. Hope it does.

      Carol, lovely story. I DID see Tom Waits in a very small venue, I think it was a conference room of a Holiday Inn, seriously. He is very funny and quite sad, wish I could have known him as a friend. Not because of his fame but for his soul. It was the 70's, a time of many great songs and writers. Believe it or not, Leon Red Bone was the headliner lol. What a great time just listening.

      I hope I’m not insulting you by suggesting Nighthawks At The Diner. If you like this the records full of this banter. Full of great piano songs too. I’m guessing you know this but in case you don’t or maybe someone may read this and go there. Either way it’s a fantastic record that needs to be discovered.
      Nuff said.

    Thank god for this. You can't love truly love an artists music until you understand the artist. I've never understood Tom Waits, but have spent hours youtubing him tonight. I never knew his sense of humour so such a big part of his music and his act. I liked him before, I now like him a little bit more. If I keep learning, one day I'll love him.

    Listen. Tom Waits was singing the Heart of Saturday Night, she held the remote control in her hand, bumped up the volume, danced in her glory and sang along with Tom, makes it kind of quiver down in the core 'cause you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before and now you're stumblin' you're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night...

    I was pretty surprised to find out that Tom Waits is a native of Los Angeles, that's the last place i ever would have expected him to hail from... I'd be honored if some Waits fans would take a listen to my acoustic keyboard & vocal RUclips performance of THE HEART OF SATURDAY NIGHT in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital enhancements. Peace out and stay safe.

    Well, you gassed her up behind the wheel
    With your arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile
    Barrelin' down the boulevard
    You're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night
    You got paid on Friday
    And your pockets are jinglin' and you see the lights
    You get all tinglin' 'cause you're cruisin' with a 6
    You're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night
    Then you comb your hair, shave your face
    Tryin' to wipe out every trace of all the other days
    In the week you know that this'll be the Saturday
    You're reachin' your peak
    Stoppin' on the red, you're goin' on the green
    'Cause tonight'll be like nothin', you've ever seen
    And you're barrelin' down the boulevard
    You're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night
    Tell me, is it the crack of the pool balls, neon buzzin'?
    Telephone's ringin', it's your second cousin
    Is it the barmaid that's smilin' from the corner of her eye?
    Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye
    Makes it kind of quiver down in the core
    'Cause you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before
    And now you're stumblin'
    You're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night
    You gassed her up and you're behind the wheel
    With your arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile
    Barrellin' down the boulevard
    You're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night
    Is it the crack of the pool balls, neon buzzin'?
    Telephone's ringin', it's your second cousin
    And the barmaid is smilin' from the corner of her eye
    Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye
    Aches this kind of quiver down in the core
    And you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before
    It's found you're stumblin'
    You're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night
    And you're stumblin'
    Stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night

    @copperegrets She clutched the remote control against her heart and she sang so damn loud the windows rattled, she thought her aching heart would explode into its own passionate melody. She swayed her hips slow and sweet... this was her virginal toast to life. She tumbled all the way down into a well filled with midnight magnolias and again sang along with Tom…
