Momma you're beautiful tonight –
Movie star hair and that black eye.
You can't even notice it,
When you smile so hard
Through a heart felt lie.
Go kiss the liquor off his laugh,
Another suitcase full of cash,
Shiny apologies in a velvet box,
What a real good man!
We drive brand new cars and we light fine cigars,
We shine like small town stars
Through the best days of our lives
We would walk right down the pavement –
I know we're gonna be just fine,
And I'll put on my dancing shoes real tight,
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
Just another Saturday night
Another fist, another wall –
We lose ourselves, we lose it all.
I wrote him a hundred times.
Can you hear my heart
Through the prison bars?
The boys I kiss don't know my name,
The tears I cry all taste of blame,
Bad luck and dirty cops –
I'm a fucking teenage tragedy.
I walk lonely streets and I talk big time dreams,
So hold on before you see,
That you're better off without me.
'Cause when I look up
From the pavement,
I know I'm gonna be just fine,
And I'll put on my dancing shoes real tight,
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
Just another Saturday night
There's a rainbow on the bathroom door again,
Where the lipstick slides and the pearls all fly.
I'm gonna and I ain't coming back this time,
I'm gonna find my home underneath the city lights.
Pills fall like diamonds from my purse
Right out the hole in my fur coat,
Straight down the gutter goes my antidote
To a broken girl.
I promise I'll be the one you want,
Don't tell me I'm unfixable.
You don't know what it's like
To be seventeen with nowhere to go
But give me just one night
And I'll be almost fine,
Remind me one more time,
It's the best days of our lives
'Cause when I look up
From the pavement,
I know I'm gonna be just fine,
And I'll put on my dancing shoes real tight,
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
Just another Saturday night
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
Just another Saturday night
Cause it's just another Saturday night
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
'Cause it's just another Saturday night
And it's just another Saturday night
