Lyrics Here Comes The Night - Ray Wylie Hubbard

Here Comes The Night

Standin' on a corner, pocket full of hate
Lookin' like a boy, feelin' like a man
Here come my baby in a two-tone Lincoln
The way she looked at me, she knew what I was thinkin'
Foot hit the brakes and she opened the door
Slid in the seat and her foot hit the floor
We’re rollin' down the highway, headin' west
Puttin' the two-tone machine to the test
We got no place to go, man we don’t care
We’ll know we’re goin' when we get there
I got paid, there’s a smile on my face
Sun’s going down and everything’s in place
Everything’s in place, like it ought to be
Got the honey, got the time, got the weekend free
My day job’s nothin' but a memory
Here comes the night, my baby and me
Came to a dirt road, we took a right
Kickin' up dust into the night
We saw this little joint by the side of the road
My baby «Why not?»
I said «Let's go»
We made a U-turn, we hit the parking lot
The time was right, the night was hot
My baby held my hand, we walked through the door
The band cranked it up, we hit the dance floor
She was a-movin' like a fine machine
you know what I mean
I looked at her with a smile on my face
We was in love and everything’s in place
Everything’s in place, like it ought to be
Got the honey, got the time, got the weekend free
My day job’s nothin' but a memory
Here comes the night, my baby and me
Everything’s in place, like it ought to be
Got the honey, got the time, got the weekend free
My day job’s nothin' but a memory
Here comes the night, my baby and me
Here comes the night, my baby and me
