lyrics

A Little Bit of Heaven on a Saturday Night

Job had some issues he couldn’t comprehend
God had principles He wasn’t gonna bend
Christ was on a mission that was coming to an end
Satan was the wild card masquerading as a friend

A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
As long as we’re still here we’re gonna feel alright
A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
When the sun comes up, I’m gonna shoot out the lights

I work very, very hard and I’m very, very bright
If I need a little on the side I think you might
Look the other way and take a pill
All us good ol’ boys you know we do what we will

A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
As long as we’re still here we’re gonna feel alright
A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
When the sun comes up, I’m gonna shoot out the lights

My daddy was a drunkard and my momma was a whore
If I thought you could take it, I’d tell you some more
It takes a double shot of love to fill the emptiness inside
Let him stand and judge who has not lied

A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
As long as we’re still here we’re gonna feel alright
A little bit of heaven on a Saturday night
When the sun comes up, I’m gonna shoot out the lights
