    Well, Friday night
    Has finally come around
    And me and my baby gonna
    Head for a spot we found
    We're gonna forget our cares
    And dance on into the night
    Down at the club (down at the club)
    Whoa, everything is out of sight
    (Down at the club) down at the club
    We're gonna say that it's all right
    For two bits and a dollar
    They've got a swinging show or you
    Whoa, yes, they do
    And the band won't quit
    'Til everybody tell them to
    And when they place that slow dance
    You can hold your baby tight
    Down at the club (down at the club)
    Whoa, everything is out of sight
    (Down at the club) down at the club
    We're gonna say that it's all right
    Hey, they've got lots of pretty
    Dancing girls for the fellows
    But, oh, you better watch out
    In case your baby get jealous
    Now some people might like to sit
    And watch a picture show
    But if that's what your plans are
    Don't ask me to go
    Cause I'll be where the good times
    Last 'til the early morning light
    Down at the club (down at the club)
    Whoa, everything is out of sight
    (Down at the club) down at the club
    They're gonna say that it's all right
    It's all right (it's all right)
    It's all right (it's all right)
    It's all right (it's all right)
    Let me tell you, it's all right

    The Drifters also benefitted from the Songwriting Legacy of The Late Jerry Leiber (RIP) who did The Words and Mike Stoller (Music). They did On Broadway and There Goes My Baby. Ben E. King also was in the Group before going solo. I love this Channel. So many amazing rare performances.

    • @egbertsouce3895
      @egbertsouce3895 6 років тому +4

      GARFIELD MALONEY........You're half right, but basically wrong. Neither was a member of the "original" Drifters, but both became Drifters at the same time--summer of 1958 when the group's manager reorganized the group. "Original" Drifters were not successful and very short-lived before being reconstituted in mid-1953. I believe that Clyde McPhatter was the lead singer of the first two lineups, but the second group also featured Bill Pinkney, Willie Ferbie, etc. and scored several big hits in '53--'54 before McPhatter left the group for a solo career. 1-12-18

    I knew charlie in the 70,s.used to shoot pool with him at a club in banksville n.y.really good guy.at the time he was not in group because of a lawsuit .I believe the lead at the time was named fredricks.but when you m really talk about the group you gotta go back before charlie Ben e and Rudy lewis.you gotta go back to the beginning.even though it was basically a different group.they were super.the later drifters became really commercialized and their music was very similar ,,every record.but all together they were super.
