ORIGINAL LYRICS:
Out of my mind on Saturday night
1970 rollin' in sight
Radio burnin' up above
Beautiful baby, feed my love
All night till I blow away
All night till I blow away
I feel alright, I feel alright
Baby oh baby, burn my heart
Baby oh baby, burn my heart
Fall apart baby, fall apart
Baby oh baby, burn my heart
All night till I blow away
All night till I blow away
I feel alright
I feel alright

JANE'S VERSION LYRICS:
[from the 8/4/91 show...]
(Wait, wait, wait, wait-- I just wanna dedicate this next song. You know, fellas, don't you think we should? We wanna dedicate this thing to the best thing that ever-- this next song is dedicated to the best thing to ever come out of Detroit. You know what I talking about. Yes, that's right: Auto World.)
Out of my head on Saturday night
1991 rollin' in sight
Beautiful baby, feel my love
Beautiful baby, feel my love
All night till you blow away
All night till you blow away
Out of my head on Saturday night
1991 rollin' in sight
Beautiful baby, feel my love
Beautiful baby, feel my love
All night till you blow away
All night till you blow away
I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright, I feel alright
feel alright, feel alright
All night till you blow away
(We love you, Jim!)

NOTES:
Iggy Pop's real name is James (hence "Jim") and he's from Detroit (hence the dedication).
