Spirits in the Night |
| Crazy Janey and her mission man were back in the alley tradin' hands |
| 'long came Wild Billy with his friend G-man all duded up for Saturday night |
| Well Billy slammed on his coaster brakes and said anybody wanna go on up to |
| Greasy Lake |
| It’s about a mile down on the dark side of route eighty-eight |
| I got a bottle of rose so let’s try it |
| We’ll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe and I’ll take you all out to where the |
| gypsy angels go |
| They’re built like light |
| and they dance like spirits in the night (all night) in the night (all night) |
| Oh, you don’t know what they can do to you |
| Spirits in the night (all night), in the night (all night) |
| Stand right up now and let it shoot through you |
| Well now Wild young Billy was a crazy cat and he shook some dust out of his |
| coonskin cap. |
| He said, «Trust some of this it’ll show you where you’re at, or at least it’ll |
| help you really feel it» |
| By the time we made it up to Greasy Lake I had my head out the window and |
| Janey’s fingers were in the cake |
| I think I really dug her 'cause I was too loose to fake |
| I said, «I'm hurt."She said, «Honey let me heal it». |
| And we danced all night to a soul fairy band |
| and she kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can |
| She felt so nice, just as soft as a spirit in the night (all night) |
| In the night (all night). |
| Janey don’t know what she do to you |
| Like a spirit in the night (all night), in the night (all night) |
| Stand right up and let her shoot through me. |
| Now the night was bright and the stars threw light on Billy and Davy |
| dancin' in the moonlight |
| They were down near the water in a stone mud fight |
| Killer Joe gone passed out on the lawn |
| Well now Hazy Davy got really hurt, he ran into the lake in just his socks and a |
| shirt |
| Me and Crazy Janey was makin' love in the dirt singin' our birthday songs |
| Janey said it was time to go |
| So we closed our eyes and said goodbye to gypsy angel row, felt so right |
| Together we moved like spirits in the night, all night |
| Baby don’t know what they can do to you |
| Spirits in the night, all night |
