I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we loved
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
Mama you're beautiful tonight
Movie star hair and that black eye
I can't even notice it when you smile so hard
Through a heartfelt 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 smalltown stars
Through the best days of our lives
We will walk right down the pavement
And know we're gonna be just fine
And I put on my dancin' shoes real tight
Cuz it's just another Saturday night!
