Night By Night |
| It’s a beggar’s life, said the Queen of Spain |
| But don’t tell it to a poor man |
| 'Cause he’s got to kill for every thrill |
| The best he can |
| Said everywhere around me I see jealousy and mayhem |
| Because no men have |
| Their peace of mind to carry them |
| I ain’t got the heart |
| To lose another’s fight |
| So until my ship comes in |
| I’ll live night by night |
| The joker tried to tell me I could cut it in this rube town |
| When he tried to hang that sign on me |
| I said take it down |
| When the dawn patrol, got to tell you twice |
| They don’t do it with a shotgun |
| Said, I’m cashing in this ten-cent life |
| For another one |
| I don’t really care |
| If it’s wrong or if it’s right |
| But until my ship comes in |
| I’ll live night by night |
| Well, I don’t really care |
| If it’s wrong or if it’s right |
| But until my ship comes in |
| I’ll live night by night |
| Night by night |
