OK this has been bugging me for years and I'm hoping some of the more music savvy members can help me out.

There's a rockabilly song & video I remember from the mid 80's but I cannot for the life of me remember the song title or who the band was.

The only lyrics I remember go something like this:
"Don't they know it's Saturday night
They say drink up and they flash those lights"

The video was in black & white and had a few shots of a custom Merc

Anybody know this one?

Help!

Thanks guys

It's Saturday Night - The Razorbacks.

Smack dab in the middle of the night
They close these water holes down
They close them down way to soon
Yeah leave me hangin round...
That's all, it's time to go
Kiss this place goodbye
Yeah you know it's 1 o'clock
You better get outside

Chorus
Don't they know that it's Saturday night
They say drink up and they flash those lights
Don't they know? I gotta go
It's Saturday night
Don't they know that it's Saturday night
It's 1 o'clock and we're standing outside
Don't they know? I gotta go
I gotta go all night.

Somehow it don't seem right
Start off here around nine
Spend my money all night long
At the end just get a hard time
Drink up, come on lets go
They're giving us the biz
Haaaay it's 1o'clock
Do you know where your booze can is?

Chorus

Rockin guitar solo
