Saturday Night Special Lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, I was there to buy a pistol 

She was there to hauck her ring 

The broker in the pawnshop 

Deals in almost anything. 

He'll pay you for your misery 

Or he'll sell you someone's pain 

And that twinkle in his greedy eye 

Says your loss will be his gain. 

She stood back in the shadows 

As the broker dealt with me 

Her eyes were dark and desperate 

From some private misery. 

His words were so prophetic 

When he said you got a steal 

I said throw in one bullet 

And you got yourself a deal.

Oh, a Saturday night special 

Is an easy thing to buy 

All you got to be is twenty-one 

Or fifteen if you lie. 

Just hand the man money 

And if some ones gotta die 

The broker in the pawnshop 

Won't even blink an eye. 

Well, he handed me the pistol 

And I was almost to the door 

When I heard him tell the lady 

Seven dollars nothing more. 

The lady started crying 

As he took her wedding band 

Well, my hand was in my pocket 

And the gun was in my hand.

I was gonna use that bullet 

To end my life 

I was once somebody's husband 

She was once somebody's wife. 

Well, I usually mind my business 

But I could not walk away 

His dollars just weren't making sense 

And I knew I had to stay. 

Well, the broker's face turned pasty 

When he caught my icy stare 

It would never leave my pocket 

But he knew the gun was there. 

I asked him what his life was worth 

And he opened up that drawer 

For a simple golden wedding band 

He paid $2000 more. 

That Saturday night was special 

Even though it wasn't planned 

As we walked down the sidewalk 

She reached and took my hand. 

We crossed the bridge and I took that gun 

And sailed it through the air 

I said, "Ever been to Texas?" 

She said, "I think I'd love it there." 

Oh, a Saturday night special 

Is an easy thing to buy 

All you got to be is twenty-one 

Or fifteen if you lie 

But there's a pawnshop in the city 

That used to deal in everything 

Ha, but you can't buy a pistol there, 

You cant hawk your wedding ring...
