AMC has just released the video premiere of an original song, “Better Call Saul,” featuring never-before-seen footage from the series. Performed by Junior Brown, the song’s lyrics were written by show creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould.
You drink one, drink two, drink three Long Island ice teas
But your buddy’s worse off, and he throws ya his car keys
Blue lights are a blinking’, four o’clock in the morn,
State trooper makes you wish that you’d never been born
Better Call Saul, Better Call Saul
You wanna tell the world you’re in love with a girl named Fran
So you find an overpass and say it with a spray paint can
Blue lights start a blinking’, those handcuffs click
You know who to call, and you’d better call quick!
Saul, Saul, you better call Saul –
He’ll fight for your rights when your back’s to the wall
Stick it the Man, Justice for all –
You better call Saul!
(4 bar instrumental break)
Shopping at the Wal-Mart, short just a couple of beans
there’s a George Foreman grill down the back of your blue jeans
they caught you at the checkout and the blue lights blink –
Only one guy to call, ’cause the others all stink
Better Call Saul, Better Call Saul
Your husband disappeared in a most convenient way
Now your troubles are gone, his insurance will surely pay
You get to the bank but the cops say “whoa!”
who ya gonna dial when they lock you down cold?
Saul, Saul, you better call Saul –
He’ll fight for your rights when your back’s to the wall
Stick it the Man, Justice for all –
You heard me… you better call Saul!
(8 bar Instrumental Break)
Your customers are gone, and your store is on the rocks
Spread around the gas, ‘cuz it’s time to torch the stock
But ya gotta move quick before you singe your own hair
who knew there was a homeless guy sleepin’ in there!
Better Call Saul, Better Call Saul
FBI finds some kids trapped in your creepy van
You stay real cool and tell ‘em you’re the ice cream man
But all their crying just gave you away
Who you gonna call to skip a prison stay?
Saul, Saul, you better call Saul –
He’ll fight for your rights when your back’s to the wall
Stick it the Man, Justice for all –
You better call Saul!
But your buddy’s worse off, and he throws ya his car keys
Blue lights are a blinking’, four o’clock in the morn,
State trooper makes you wish that you’d never been born
Better Call Saul, Better Call Saul
You wanna tell the world you’re in love with a girl named Fran
So you find an overpass and say it with a spray paint can
Blue lights start a blinking’, those handcuffs click
You know who to call, and you’d better call quick!
Saul, Saul, you better call Saul –
He’ll fight for your rights when your back’s to the wall
Stick it the Man, Justice for all –
You better call Saul!
