Aretha Franklin - Night Life lyrics
[Aretha Franklin - Night Life lyrics]
In the evening, when the sun goes down
You're gonna find me, doing
What I'm doing right now
And next just sitting around
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
And all good people, good people
Just like you and me
They’re sitting around dreaming
Sitting around dreaming about that used to be
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
Oh, listen to the blues
To the blues and what they're playing
I wonder tonight
Are you really listening to the blues
To the blues and what they're saying
What they seem to be playing to me that’s
That many people have loved
And they seem to be saying to
Me that many people have lost well, listen
They might not to have loved at all
If they had know that they
Couldn't pay the cost
Oh, they tell me, yeah, they tell
Me, yeah, they tell me, yeah, they tell me
They tell me that life is just an empty scene
They say that is older than
The oldest broken hearts
And they tell me that is newer
Than the newest stood dreams
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
You're gonna find me, doing
What I'm doing right now
And next just sitting around
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
And all good people, good people
Just like you and me
They’re sitting around dreaming
Sitting around dreaming about that used to be
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
Oh, listen to the blues
To the blues and what they're playing
I wonder tonight
Are you really listening to the blues
To the blues and what they're saying
What they seem to be playing to me that’s
That many people have loved
And they seem to be saying to
Me that many people have lost well, listen
They might not to have loved at all
If they had know that they
Couldn't pay the cost
Oh, they tell me, yeah, they tell
Me, yeah, they tell me, yeah, they tell me
They tell me that life is just an empty scene
They say that is older than
The oldest broken hearts
And they tell me that is newer
Than the newest stood dreams
The night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is
