Saturday Night Special Lyrics

Two feets they come a creepin
Like a black cat do
And two bodies are lyin naked
Creeper think he got nothin to lose
So he creeps into this house, yeah
And unlocks the door
And while a man reaching for his trousers
Shoots him full of .38...

    Songs about how much Ronnie hated hand guns and guns in general. " Hand gun was meant for killin ain't good for nothing else but to put a man six feet in a hole, so why don't we dump them into the bottom of the sea before some old fool comes around here and shoots either you or me"

    This song is not about Ronnie being shot. It is about the use of gun control.

    This is about when Ronnie was shot in his younger days. I've always liked the way he sang this song.
