Lyrics

Night Life (Live 1998)

When the evenin' sun goes down

You will find me hangin' 'round

The night life ain't no good life

But it's my life

Many people just like me

Dreamin' of old used-to-be's

And the night life ain't no good life

But it's my life

Listen to the blues they're playin'

Listen to what the blues are sayin'

Mine is just another scene

From the world of broken dreams

And the night life ain't no good life

But it's my life

The night life ain't no good life

But it's my life
