When the evenin', evenin' sun goes down
You gonna find me somewhere hangin' around
Oh, the night life, ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is

Ooo many people just like you and me
They be dreamin' of old used-to-be's
Said the night life, it ain't no good life
Ah, but it's my life

Ooo, listen to the blues
Listen to the way they're playing
Listen to the blues
Listen to what they're sayin'

Life baby, is just another scene
In this old world, world of broken dreams
Oh, the night life, ain't no good life
But it's my life

Oh, the night life, ain't no good life
But it's my life
Oh, the night life, ain't no good life
But it's my life
Yeah, it's my life
My life, yes it is
