When that evenin'
Sun go down
You won't find me hangin' round
I know the Night Life
Ain't no good life
But it's my life

All the people
Just like you and me
They all just dreamin'
Bout some old used to be
They know the Night Life
Ain't no good life
Yeah, but it's my life

Wait a minute
What's that I think I hear, I say!
Baby, listen to the blues
Hear what they say
Listen to the blues, baby
Hear the guitar play

Don't tell me life
Is just an empty thing
Nothing but people
A whole boulevard of broken dreams
Cause I know the Night Life
Ain't no good life
Yeah, but it's my life
