"Me & My Baby (Saturday Nights)" Lyrics
Music & Lyrics by David Michael Bennett
Is there such a thing as too much of a good thing?
I ask myself that everyday That is until the weekend comes and the sun has gone away to sleep
Then there's only one thing on my mind (a good time)
That's right
Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
With The dancing and the singing,
like the weekdays never happened
I could be, I should be dancing right now 'cause
Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
The talk of the town is where we're headed next
cause everywhere we go is the best
(The very, very best)
It doesn't matter the company but we're pretty good company
for you to have around
(Around, Around, Around)
And Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
With the dancing and the singing,
like the weekdays never happened
I could be, I should be dancing right now 'cause
Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday ni-ha-ha-haights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
Here we go...my baby & I, My baby and I-hai...My baby!
We're goin' Dancin' tonight!
The dull-drum of the work week gets me feeling down
misery and sorrow follow us around
But when that music hits and the band starts to play
Please, you better get out of our way
'Cause Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday)
Me & My Baby love, love, Saturday

I doubt the band will ever hear about this but my wife and I had our first dance at our wedding to this song.

[@CaptDeranged]

As long as it was a Saturday night

[@johnnybyrd6475]

They got a thing that you can pay them to do a shout out and they will know then and you will have a personal shout out. I forgot how though. I think through patreon or something.

[@eopatcjo]

We went with honeybee

[@arima_song]

That must've been beautiful! A great choice! If I'll ever marry, I'll also go with this one. Such a nice song, still one of my favorites after many years :)

[@SirTransBoi]

I wanna do the same when I get married

[@spgiraffe]

A Memphis brand piece-of-crud from the 1970s I believe. It weighs a ton and doesn't sound any better than a modern lighter base. I dunno what they were thinking in the 70s, but making that bass so heavy doesn't do anyone any good x_X. I received it as a gift when I was a kid and we dug it out of my childhood and have been using it ever since for our live shows since it's cheap, yet durable. This was "Fun-Factoid Time with The Spine!" Love, -The Spine

[@intangerbline3683]

Thank you for this information good sir.

[@omnomnom2573]

[@Smuffly]

Does anyone else notice Sam's total and obvious enthusiasm for the music, even while he's sitting and drumming? I'm so glad he gets to join them as Hatchworth, he definitely has the spirit for it.

[@spgiraffe]

Sure no problem! I didn't do anything at all though, you did it all by yourself! :) None of us are perfect singers and there are always people better than any of us at any given time, but be proud of what you're able to do and hone your skills. Practice makes perfect, and perfection is an unobtainable unicorn with a jetpack and roller-skates...But we'll catch him someday boy-howdy! -The Spine

[@spgiraffe]

What a coincidence, we love doing live shows! Let's make this happen! -The Spine

[@Solomon43822]

The Spine is such an epic singer. He's got an awesome deep voice. Not many people can pull off the pitch diversity like The Spine can. :p

[@mikibercowski2635]

he reminds me of Matt Mercer :D

[@FantasyHeartbreaker]

@@mikibercowski2635 omg yeah he kinda does :D

[@jarrodcollihole1379]

[@michaelmills6103]

Specially shown in his diamonds cover like holy shit

[@spgiraffe]

Rabbit, The Spine, Sam (drummer/bassist), and Steve (sound guy) from Steam Powered Giraffe all play video games in their down time. Borderlands has been a co-op favorite. :) -The Spine

[@michaelmills6103]

Yooooo what platform we talking

[@stevecole3192]

My older brother (74) just turned me onto these guys. Honey Bee is now my favorite song/video...and I'm old...I mean really old...as in there are rocks younger than me. I am going to see you live before my end. Thank you one and all. Blessings from Kansas~

[@Harrisonkenyon]

I hope you do see them and have a fabulous time xx

[@HotButterflyBabe77]

I am in Kansas, too! Please let me know if/when u find out they are coming here, ever. Which would be a miracle if they ever did. 💜🤖

[@realmortician]

The Spine has the most versatile voice in music. And the rest of the vocals are nothing short of amazing.

[@Seldoona]

fishin mortician yeah he's right up there with Brandon Urie

[@VinEllis]

The Spine and Rabbit had the same voice though...

[@memaymoo8088]

@@Seldoona Brendon Urie, a year later lol

[@rickmiller3735]

Great vocal range but Mike Patton from Faith No More has this crown. ;)

[@AcrimoniousMirth]

Spine vs Freddie Mercury... he’s definitely up there though!

[@natashajones5975]

Look at The Spine, he's practically oozing happiness. You can tell they really love what they do

[@sampinter2716]

I need more people to acknowledge Michael's and Rabbits coordination between the guitar and melodica for the little 'solo'!!!!! They're like, perfectly in sync!!!! And it sounds beautiful!!!

[@keithhanley7796]

Sam Pinter you're absolutely right.

[@Paranormalobsession1]

I feel like if The Spine ever left Steam Powered Giraffe (oh gosh i pray to everything that he wouldn't) he would do awesome in the country music circles.

[@Agent_Avo]

I always think about this whenever it's Saturday. I don't have a "baby," though.

[@JeremyCornelius]

I like how every person palys more than one instrument.

[@Hylebos75]

I wish I had been able to show my grandmother SPG. She would have loved their immense musicality and silliness.

[@natashajones5975]

I just realised that The Spine and Rabbit are both practicly 70% legs 😲

[@webbertools]

maybe 85% :-) ha!!!

[@hecklife6636]

More like 90% legs. Speaking of which, know who else is a robot who's 90% legs? I'm so sorry.

[@FroggyGizmo]

Like 2D from gorillaz

[@expunkstep7226]

Fuckface McGee Nice name. I know who you're talking about

[@richard127gm]

Identical twins, but The Spine is 2" taller - never did understand that.

[@JohnWMarshall1]

I'm 50 and love this sound, very fringe , new, clean smooth. reminiscent of early split enz, roxy music, genesis.....great stuff guys, keep it up :-)

[@easilyamused713]

Rabbit cracks me up at the beginning, she's just sitting there turning her head nonstop XD I love these guys, they're perfect!

[@BlueRoseShilloh]

He*

[@lizzydarkrose]

Panda Mcmuffin No, her. And even so, your correction is wrong, it'd be "his". Rabbit is transgender though, watch their more recent stuff.

[@kiwiqueen3885]

but this was like years ago, they probably didn't know this was gonna happen.

[@lizzydarkrose]

Kiwi Queen Rabbit has been a women for three years. Almost four now

[@kiwiqueen3885]

holy shit your right. Sorry.

[@CassandraChatwin]

I'm probably driving my co-workers batty with this song. It's so good I can't help but hit the repeat button and put the volume at the highest decible my headphones can play. You simply just cannot appreciate the fantastic vocals in any other way

[@lougert]

Rabbit's motions are mesmerizing in this video. You guys are amazing.

[@BlinkinFirefly]

+Kelsey Gertnerd Mesmerzing. That's the word that I keep using too. They really are...O_O

[@k33fytruant]

That lead vocal is absolutely insane! Such a classy song.

[@dhender85]

I hope the SPG guys see this post. My son (who will be 4 in a couple months) absolutely loves this song. He sings along when it's on, and sings (what he can) from memory. I love what you do, and hopefully I can see you live in the near future.

[@sunnysea24]

Puppy Fart She preferred the acting over the musical aspect so it was somewhat her being kicked out for not doing the music up to everyone else's standard and also somewhat her leaving to pursue acting.

[@jondonnelly3]

I love this apart from the mouth keyboard break. Almost perfection.

[@mellvee]

@Puppy Cove - if you look in Reddit, there's a post titled "Why does the third member keep getting switched out?" To which The Spine personally answers in depth with three huge walls of witty, insightful, sometimes brutally honest, text. I feel like I know this band a lot better after having spent the twenty minutes reading and rereading the response, and it answered literally every question I've wanted to ask these guys for several years. It shows how caring the Bennett twins are and how much they love their friends, their fans and their band, regardless of who it currently includes. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. 😍

[@zrspangle]

@@mellvee link?

[@eevee986]

There's no such thing as too much of a good thing, as long as it's The Spine's smooth voice!

[@RadicallChifaz]

I'm actually considering flying to San Diego to see these guys EVERY DAY LIVE at the San Diego Zoo ♥

[@kevinjgrant4255]

I have been taking my son to the zoo all summer and these guys have been there. My son rather watch these guys than see animals. there not my genre but they are cool as ever. More power to you guys, I have bought your cd off of your website. I'll support you guys to the fullest. Good luck SPG from southeast san diego 4th districk " GANGLAND" I hope the rest of the world get a chance to watch and hear you guys perform.

[@justmarc7222]

2:53 -How many times have you re-listened to this moment? - please, you better GET OUT OF OUR WAAAAY I adore y'all. I get so inspired just by listening to you, that's awesome!!! Even though it's a long-ago record...

[@thescrapbuilder3512]

When I'm watching this I can't stop watching rabbit's robotic movements, I love how dedicated they are to the role!

[@sonjafaircloth9126]

You guys are FANTASTIC!!!!!!!! You seriously need to come to Syracuse New York!!!!! Have your manager contact the state fair people!!!!! You could appear at the free concert court for people but the state pays you!!!! What a great way to get exposure!!!! Our fair runs from the last week of August to Labor Day!!!!! Please come to Syracuse somehow!!!!!

[@scottwinfrey519]

David has the best voice of all. Perfect bass.

[@evalisehjenjensen9559]

[@p0ltergeists]

You guys are quickly becoming one of my favourite bands. I've been boasting about how great you guys are to everyone I know. You're all so creative, talented, and versatile and I love what you guys add to the Steampunk community, and the music community in general! I'm so excited to get The 2¢ Show!

[@JugglingWolves]

I don't know if you meant it this way, but the inflection of the voices and the overall tone makes me believe that "baby-love" is a moniker. I know that in the overall song, looking at lyrics as a whole, this doesn't make sense... but the term "baby-love" has made me fall in love with this song. It makes me want to be called baby-love. For that, I cannot stop listening to this song.

[@dalehager8303]

I've just recently discovered these guys. I really like the oldies sound.

[@eugenehyun5842]

The memories from this song are so many for me

[@tjrawesome]

I found them probably early March on Tumblr and thought the same thing, "Oh, they are cool, but they will be like all the rest of my music findings that go away after I obsess for a few weeks". Well, it's been almost three months and I still can't get enough of them. They have very quickly moved into the top two bands I wanna see live and will no doubt become number one soon enough.

[@fattyproductions]

the talent this band has is overflowing with no end in sight!!

[@spgiraffe]

Awesome! Keep your eyes peeled to our website, Facebook, and Google Calendar. I am sure you'll be able to sync up the perfect show/event in the future! -The Spine

[@nickhighwind2369]

It's more about voice impostation than range, and yeah, he and the way he sings are beautiful. Steam powered giraffe are beautiful. Saturday nights are beautiful. You are beautiful, dear stranger.

[@Sayori23]

I. love. this. song. I could listen to it all day, sighing. My boyfriend and I just got us a Melodica, and I enjoy practicing the 2:08 part so much. I hope the new album will contain more songs like this. I adore you, SPG!

[@MorganaRowan]

I think one my favorite things about this band is their versatility. They can sing all sorts of genres, and it's all beautiful.

[@FrauSmartcard]

I Don't understand all of these comments about gender and that stuff. It's MAGICAL MUSIC by MAGICAL MUSICIANS AND ARTISTS. Nothing else matters... I love it!

[@amyleigh2314]

I've been a fan since a friend showed them to me as well. I haven't been able to stop listening, watching, obsessing. I've since showed several videos to anyone who is willing to give them a listen. And if they are not, I tie them to a chair and make them. Seriously, I've done it. They are now a fan like me lol. 2:16 is actually my FAVORITE part of the song. The ever adorable Rabbit plays that melodica SO well

[@paulmahurin5972]

Who here in 2025 still listening to the greatest band still playing

[@driagonatas]

i'm so going to drive 4 hours to go to the sky commodore's autumn masquerade ball just to see these guy's!!! can't wait till september!!!

[@aaronkinney3833]

Guy I went to boot camp with would always sing this. Now I understand why. Love the mellow sound and vocal harmonies.

[@spiderBr0]

your harmonies make me want to cry from the beauty. your voices are gorgeous.

[@mosergray8416]

Freaking awesome. Why oh why is this not on the radio?!!! Everybody needs to hear this!

[@ninodoko]

I genuinely hope that hanging out like that turns out to be a reality for humankind sometime in the future.

[@jamiekinkead6693]

those voices... make me melt... goose bumps every time oh gosh... you are amazing..

[@Private-Andy]

My 18 month old grandson loves dancing to this song.

[@jasonstamwitz6928]

One of my wife’s favorites! We enjoy how this song ends on the 10 yr. anniversary concert.

[@interrobangTD]

The best part is that now that there's an official video, this song can be enjoyed any day of the week.

[@Aku6m6a6]

i don't know how many times I have replayed this song but it never gets overplayed XD i love the spine he's so awesome :3

[@StolenSpring]

i dont understand why some people dont care about the spine as much as either jon or rabbit. he is just as good. if not better. he is fantastic. dont get me wrong. i LOVE the others. with all my heart, my friends even call me rabbit. but the spine. just wow.

[@forrestkal4784]

Anybody else love the way The Spine says "baby" in this song?

[@bikerhighmiler8998]

Great voice!! All are extremely talented.

[@Johnisreallyhungry]

Hatchworths human costume is phenomenal!

[@dianepanaccio9051]

This band is the WHOLE package! Is there anything they can't do? Seriously! I love them sooo much!!

[@meefling]

I'm so glad I found a band that I can openly listen to with my family without my grandma complaining about how 'modern' it is ;) she's hooked on this song being at least 50 years old, she was really surprised when I told her it wasn't

[@LordAppleton]

spines voice in this song is priceless. just your high voice David is ecstasy to my ears!

[@LordAppleton]

your deep voice is amazing but your high is outstandingly amazing :)

[@satsunoryu]

I've just discovered you guys last night. And I'm sold. The Spine your voice is awesome. Rabbit, Your comical and so are you The John. The drummer's mustache and the other Human. You're voices are outstanding. and your outfits got me too. It's my Style. Would love to get to know you guys. ~Bradford.

[@OoMiraoo]

this is a heartwarming song giving butterflies. Well delivered

[@KatieH20]

Made on my birthday and I'm crying. It's such a beautiful song and I feel blessed to be gifted with this amazing melody. ♡♡♡♡

[@TKakela]

Out of all SPG songs this is the one that really struck me strong (well, after Honeybee - nothing can top that for me!). It's because it's so classical in it's nature and the performance is just flawless. It's also one of the best ones to belt out loud along, usually I sing along loud & proud when I'm driving around. I just keep returning to this. Good thing I bought the album so I can play this on repeat in the car if I want to! ^^

[@crazygalemt]

A friend of mine introduced me to Steam Powered Giraffe on Monday night....Love it!!! So much talent! I'm glued!

[@Silmarien]

From 3:00 - 3:30, Rabbit's robotic movement is incredible. Rabbit and the rest of the band are such a talented bunch; can't imagine how much practice and commitment they've put into this amazing art of theirs.

[@spgiraffe]

People definitely dance at our shows, however sometimes the smaller venues we perform at get packed to the brim, making dancing pretty impossible. However, we did actually perform at a Masquerade Steampunk ball last December that was essentially a giant dance floor. We didn't and currently don't have any waltzes or the like, but people were still ballroom dancing to our 4/4 songs. -The Spine

[@Jay-ih9jp]

I have an unhealthy obsession with this song. Why THIS one in particular? I HAVE NO IDEA

[@keya2325]

The Spine does that to you

[@Jay-ih9jp]

Yeeeah his voice is addictive I swear

[@brittanylormis4553]

You've given me reason to love Saturday nights (and every other night I listen to you guys).

I've always just loved bunny's voice tbh, definitely my favorite bot

[@cmcd003]

Fantastic! I'm loving the direction the band is headed in! The new stuff is TREMENDOUS!!

I think the spine is so bloody gorgeous!! His beautiful face and voice make my heart hurt. I hope one day I can come to America and see you guys play!

[@lorabanora]

You know, that actually clarified things for me. Thanks.

I lost track of how may times i listened to this... These guys are perfect. I have never heard anything like this before. Between the soothing, rhythmic and happy music, Spine's perfect baritone and the fantastic harmonies, it's just AMAZING.

[@Starburst514]

I think I'm in love with The Spine!

[@VincentRinehart]

Those deep tones, mang. Givin' all the honies the shivers.~

[@hazelinspace]

Ugh. David, your voice. It's my favourite voice in the world.

[@Zerocyde]

That guitar flair at :45 is awesome, but I would have loved to have heard it built towards. Like the first time no flair, the second time a smaller flair, and the third time the full flair. Rifts and things like that building as the song progress really makes for a special sound. Kind of like in Bad Religion's Dearly Beloved how the drums have a few extra beats in them during the final chorus. It just sends chills up your spine.

[@wildlee3111]

I searched for another "Me and my baby" song, but Google suggest me to try this one, happy to stay here :) Nice song!

[@brendonnel6631]

Guys honestly. This is the coolest idea for a band and music I have ever heard. You guys rule & I fucking love you.

[@KermaPippuri]

For the longest time I was 100% sure Rabbit was the one singing the chorus. But considering her and The Spine are twins, it´s not that surprising they can sound the same.

[@spgiraffe]

I think one of the new songs on "The 2-Cent Show" album might be up your ally. Look for "Airheart" when it's released in a few weeks. It's got a quick swung 1950s feel to it. :) -The Spine

[@Lilay8595]

This band is basically the personification of Steam Punk. They are amazing.

[@Nidhog17]

That sounds friggin' awesome! Let me know when you find it.

OMG I finally have a good enough computer to be able to watch it at its highest quality and I am just floored at how amazing it looks this way.. I've seen this video dozen times or more... and wow. Blown away all over again.

[@BLCJ123]

I think I have an addiction. I don't do cocaine or heroin, I take doses of Spine's voice through a syringe and inject it into my arm. It's a problem but I'm not gonna stop any time soon.

[@Blue-Pheonix455]

Can you please spare some for me?

[@rosekiller4004]

When my craving is really strong I'll put on 500miles which is sang by just David and then I lean back and let the drugs take over my body. Hes so fucking good dude like wtf I wish he did more solo stuff. (No hate to the others)
