[Verse 1]
You're out on the town and in a partying mood
Feelin' kind of lucky, feelin' really good
Pants full of money, head full of booze
You know there ain't no way you can lose

[Chorus]
Could be tonight, could be tonight
Could be tonight, should be tonight

[Verse 2]
It's been almost ten days and your body's in pain
Life without a woman can drive a man insane
Just like "the cat" getting ready to strike
Throw out your line boy, they're ready to bite

[Chorus]
Could be tonight, could be tonight
Could be tonight, could be tonight

[Bridge]
You're hanging at the juke box for a little while
Hoping that a lady will return your smile
(Ooh, ooh, ba ba ba ba)
And even if you haven't made a point all night (Ooh, ba ba ba ba)
And your natural beauty's fading in the morning light (Ooh)
[Chorus]
Could be tonight, should be tonight
Could be tonight, should be tonight (Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
Could be tonight, should be tonight (Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
Could be tonight, should be tonight (Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
Could be tonight, could be, should be
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
Could be tonight, should be tonight (Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)

[Outro]
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
(Ba-ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
