Night Life

In the evening

When the sun goes down

You're gonna find me

Sittin' around

The night life

Ain't no good life

But it's my life

O, good people

Just like you and me

Sittin' around dreaming

?Up that there used to be?

I tell you that the night life

Sure ain't no good life

But it's my life, yes it is

O, listen to the blues

To the blues and what they're saying

Listen to the blues, to the blues and what they're

playing

They seem to be saying to me

Many people have loved

And many people have lost

They might not have loved at all

Had they known that they couldn't pay the cost

They tell me, they tell me

That life is just an empty scene

Older than the oldest broken heart

Newer than the newest broken dreams

I tell you the night life, the night life

Sure ain't no good life

But do you know that it's my life

Yeah, yeah, I tell you that the night life

Sure ain't no good life

But do you know that it's my life
