Ellen Foley - Night Out lyrics

It's a Saturday night out on
The lower East side
The kids in from Queens have
Now taken their ride starlight in their eyes
Well, they're chic on the streets
And they're struttin' with pride
They're light on their feet
As they hustle inside
They're all giggles and sighs

The club's hot and sweaty and
Half of them stand
But nobody cares, it’s their favorite band
They're the lost battalion from
The last rebellion
Lighting the fires for the
New resurrection at hand
They run to that rock and roll sound

But, you're a loner and out with the crowd
And everybody knows that it's
It's kinda hard to get by
When you're so nervous and shy
You're just a loner and out with the crowd
Looking for a lover who could take
You down with his heart on your night out
(on your, on your night out)

(Night out, night out, night out)
(On your night out)

There's hand-printed posters up all
Over the place and it’s hardly that old
Piano and stand-up bass
Hey, yeah, of day’s gone by
'Cause the lights and the amps and
The heat starts to hum
And the band's up there singing
Something about Kingdom Come
Kingdom Come with their guitars up high

And the room gets so sultry
It's starting to sway
That soul city street choir
Man, they can play, they can play
And the night seems to answer by opening wide
And everybody's dancin'
Yeah, everybody's dancin' side-by-side
And nobody's tryin' to hide

But, you
You're a loner and out with the crowd
And everybody knows that it's
It's kinda hard to get by
When you're so nervous and shy
You're just a loner and out with the crowd
Looking for a lover who could take
You down with his heart
On your big night out
(on your, on your night out)

(Night out, night out, On your night out)
