In the evening when the sun goes down
Oh, you'll find me hangin' 'round
'Cause the night life ain't no good life
But it's my life, oh yes it is

Many people just like you and me
Are dreamin' about how things used to be
But the nightlife ain't no good life
But it's my life

Listen to the blues they're playin'
Listen to the blues, to what's saying
Hie, yeah

Home, it's just another place
Oh, from that world of broken dreams
Yes, the nightlife ain't no good life
But it's my life, oh yes it is

Sometimes it's sad
Then again it's happy
Oh, mmm, sometimes
