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

Well, 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 rosé 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

Oh, 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 ya

Spirits in the night

(All night) oh every night (all night)

Stand right up now and let it shoot through ya

Well, now wild young 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 your at

Or at least it'll help you really feel it

Well, by the time we made it up to Greasy Lake

I had my head out the window

And Janey's fingers were in the cake

I think I really dug her and I was to 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 so nice just as soft as a spirit in the night

(All night) in the night (all night)

Oh Janey don't know what she do to ya

Like a spirit in the night

(All night) all night (all night)

Stand right up now and let it shoot through me

Now the night was bright and the stars

Threw light on Billy and Davy dancin' in the moonlight

They were down near the water

Having a stoned mud fight

Killer Joe gone passed out on the lawn

Well, now Hazy Davy got really hurt

He ran into the lake in just his socks and a shirt

Me and Crazy Janey was makin' love in the dirt

Singin' our birthday song

Janey said it was time to go

So we closed our eyes and said goodbye

To gypsy angel row

Felt so right

Together we moved like spirits in the night

(All night) every night (all night)

Oh you don't know what they do to ya

Them spirits in the night

(All night) all night (all night)

Stand right up and let it shoot through ya

Like a spirit in the night

(All night) all night

(All night) all night

(All night) all night

(All night) all night

(All night) all night

(All night) all night
