Spud - S. Main

In my house of 50 years
My wife breaks out in tears
As she dives to the floor
A spot she's been before
She lets out a cry
The fear pours from her eyes
Just stay out of sight
Don't you dare look outside
I hear the bullets rip
Windows shatter from the hit
The tires squeal and skid
Were the two girls shot innocent?
Just another Saturday…. On South Main
Can you tell me what happened to this
Coal miner town
Taken over by the wicked
Doomed to burn us down
What was once in a blue moon
Kicks off the nightly news
Just another Saturday… On South Main
Well the time had passed, before me
It was a typical weekend morning
The sky was dark, the walk was long
Quiet streets lit poorly
As i lit my cigarette
A man approached, I can't forget
He had one request
He puffed chest
Looking for all that he could get
And so I said, son, what do you wanna prove
You don't know me and you don't want to
He threw a strike, I ducked to the side
This is one old man you don't wanna fight
He reached for his waist, like a young man does
No more fighting punch for punch
I charged him like, a bull at a cape
My knife went deep, he met his fate
Just another Saturday… On South Main
And I'll tell you what happens in this
Coal miner town
Every night I hunt the wicked
Doomed to burn us down
And every once in a blue moon
I'm on the nightly news
Just another Saturday… On South Main
Any ol' Saturday...
