Dr. John - Such a Night lyrics

Such a night, it's such a night
Sweet confusion under the moonlight
Such a night, such a night
To steal away, the time is right

Your eyes caught mine, and at a glance
You let me know that this was my chance
But, you came here with my best friend Jim
And here I am
Tryin' to steal you away from him

Oh, but if I don't do it
You know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will

And it's such a night, it's such a night
Sweet confusion under the moonlight
It's such a night, such a night
To steal away, the time is right



Yeah, I couldn't believe my ear
And my heart just skipped a beat
When you told me to take
You walkin' down the street oh yeah
You came here with my best friend Jim
Here I am, I'm stealin' you away from him

Oh, but if I don't do it
You know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will
If I don't do it, you know somebody else will

'Cause it's such a night
