Ely Joe Saint Valentine Lyrics

Saint Valentine Lyrics

Saint Valentine drove a red Continental



With a headlight out and a dent in the side



He said it wasn't his; it was only a rental



But he drove it every single night







Saint Valentine wore shades and a Cowboy Hat



He looked straight outa Lonesome Dove



You never saw his eyes but you knew down deep inside



He was longin for a long lost love







The Origional Lover had a broken heart



To the ground his blood did flow



And for every drop that fell to the earth 



A red, red rose did grow







Saint Valentine ate pizza every Monday night



And chased it with Johnny Walker Black



The waitresses would stare but he just didn't care



He just wanted his lover back







Saint Valentine wore a t-shirt of the Virgin Madonna



With the sleeves cut out and a tear through the heart



He wore it like a shield to protect his pride and honor



He was tired of livin' so far apart







The Origional Lover had a broken heart



To the ground his blood did flow



And for every drop that fell to the earth 



A red, red rose did grow







Saint Valentine would Circle the Shoppin' Center Mall



With his radio wailin' the Blues



He'd park outside the door of the Video Store



Like he was one of the chosen few







Saint Valentine drove a red Continental



With a headlight out and a dent in the side



He swore it wasn't real; it was only mental



But he drove it every single night
