recording of 19

When that ev'nin' sun goes down, 
yeah, you'll find me hangin' around 
Because the night life, 
it ain't no good life but it's my life 
Yeah, yeah, yeah listen to the blues, 
listen to what they're sayin' 
Oh, please listen to the blues, 
listen to the blues they're playin' 
Ah, ah, all of the people just like you and me, 
they're all dreamin' about their old used to be 
Because the night life, 
it ain't no good life but it's my life 
They tell me life's an empty scene, 
an avenue of broken dreams 
Because the night life, 
it ain't no good life but it's my life
