I woke up on a sidewalk in the sunday rain Still holdin' on that smokin' gun, I felt I crushed my brain Then came that old epiphany, nothing too profound That Saturday Night Special, she'll put me in the ground I didn't wanna go that way, I got too much to do And then I met a trouble girl who helped to pull me through I opened up her glove box, I got scared of what I found That saturday night special, she'll put me in the ground Come along, come along, i'm feeling so alone All nights I hurt myself on and on and on Me and all my fiendish friends, going out on the town Just can't seem to help myself and put that bastard down I gotta put that bastard down Well it hit me hard in my head when I started to come 'round That Saturday night special, she'll put you in the ground
