Greetings From Asbury Park Nj |
|
Spirit In The Night |
|
Crazy janey and her mission man were back in the alley tradin' hands long came wild billy with his friend g-man all duded up for saturday night |
|
Billy slammed on his coaster brakes and said anybody wanna go on up to greasy lake |
|
It's about a mile down on the dark side of route 88 |
|
I got a bottle of rose so let's try it |
|
We'll pick up hazy davy and killer joe and i'll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go |
|
They're built like light |
|
And they dance like spirits in the night (all night) in the night (all night) |
|
Oh you don't know what they can do to you |
|
Spirits in the night, in the night |
|
Stand up now and let it shoot through you |
|
Well now wild billy was a crazy cat and he shook some dust out of his coonskin cap |
|
He said "trust some of this it'll show you where you're at or at least it'll help you really feel it" |
|
By the time we made it up to greasy lake i had my head out the window and janey's fingers in the cake |
|
I think i really dug her `cause i was too loose to fake |
|
I said "i'm hurt" she said "honey let me heal it" |
|
And we danced all night to a soul fairy band |
|
And she kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can |
|
She felt just right just like as sweet as a spirit in the night |
|
In the night baby don't know what she do to you |
|
Spirits in the night, in the night |
|
Stand up now and let her shoot right through you |
|
Now the night grew bright and the stars threw light in billy and davy |
|
Dancin' in the moonlight |
|
We were down near the water in a stone mud fight |
|
Killer joe'd passed out on the lawn |
|
Well hazy davy got really hurt he crawled into the lake in just his socks and a shirt |
|
Me and crazy janey were makin' love in the dirt singin' our birthday songs |
|
Janey said "hey little brother don't you think it's time now we go" |
|
So we closed our eyes and said goodbye to gypsy angel row felt just right |
|
Together we moved like spirits in the night, all night |
|
Baby don't know what it do to you |
|
Spirits in the night, all night |
|
Stand up now and let it shoot right through you |
