the hillbilly thomists - saturday night lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well i could’ve been a stoner, or i could’ve been a poser
or ended up a home+grown loner, i’m told

but i became a holy+roller, it turned out alright
because i found salvation on a sat+rday night

i’ll tell ya a little story, and this one’s for free
and when you hear the magic words, repeat after me

[chorus]
i found salvation
true revelation
that’s a real revolution
and the standard solution

like old hank williams, i saw the light
because i found salvation on a sat+rday night

[verse 2]
now i was breaking into high school at nine o’ two
i went up to the shop class to borrow some tools

i saw mr. saratoga with a dog at his side
flashlight in his left hand, shotgun in his right
so i got back in the car, i saw some blue lights
then i drove to a bar so i could stay outta sight

the door was wide open, so i went inside

so i went into the chamber, started singing my song

he said “listen to the words and trade the wrong way for the right”

[chorus]

they were shuffling their feet and they were singing a key
and they were saying magic words,

[verse 3]
well if he hadn’t been a man, he wouldn’t be one of us
and if he hadn’t been the lord, we wouldn’t make such a fuss

but you put ’em both together, it pays for it all
it’s the kind of mathematics changed saul into paul
now i’m busy digging ditches in my standard uniform
but i talked to the warden, said “it won’t last long”

he lets us play our music on a sat+rday night
’cause it beats playing poker and getting into fights

yeah, we’re singing the magic words in our favorite key

[chorus]
i found salvation
all across the nation
that’s a real solution
and the true revolution

like old hank williams, i saw the light
because i found salvation on a sat+rday night

[outro]
sat+rday night
sat+rday night

like old hank williams, i saw the light
because i found salvation on a sat+rday night

like old hank williams, i saw the light
because i found salvation
sat+rday night
