Night Life

Paul Buskirk, Walt Breeland, Willie Nelson

In the evenin' when the sun goes down
You gonna find me sittin' around
The night life, ain't no good life
But it's my life

Oh many people just like you and me
Sitting around dreamin' about their used-to-be
I tell ya that the night life, sure ain't no good life
But it's my life, yes it is

Oh listen to the blues
To the blues and what they're are sayin'
Listen to the blues
To the blues and what they're are playin'

They seem to sayin' to me
Many people have loved and many people have lost
They might not have loved at all
Had they have known they couldn't, couldn't pay the cost

Oh they tell me, they tell me
That life is just an empty sea
Older than the oldest broken heart
Newer than the newest broken dreams

I tell ya the night life,
The night life, sure ain't no good life
Until you know that it's my life, yeah yeah
I tell ya that the night life, hey hey hey yeah, sure ain't no good life
Until you know that it's my life, yeah
