Here Comes the Night Time

When the sun goes down,

When the sun goes down you head inside

Because the lights don't work,

Nothing works but you don't mind

Here comes the night time

The missionaries tell us we will be left behind

Been left behind a thousand times, a thousand times

If you want to be righteous, if you want to be righteous

Get in line

Here comes the night time

Here comes the night time

Look out, here comes the night time

Now here comes the night

Here comes the night

Look out here comes the night time

They say heaven's a place, yeah heaven's a place

And they know where it is,

But you know where it is?

It's behind the gate, they won't let you in

When they hear the beat coming from the street the lock the door,

If there's no music up in heaven then what's it for?

When I hear the beat, my spirit's on like a live wire

A thousand horses running wild in a city on fire

It starts in your feet, then it goes to your head

And if you can feel it, then the rules are dead

And if you're the judge, then what is our crime?

Here comes the night time.

Now the preachers they talk

[?]

If you're looking for hell, just try looking inside

When you look in the sky, just try looking inside

God knows what you might find

Here comes the night time
