John Mellencamp - Night Slumming Lyrics
Written by John Mellencamp(Night Slumming - burp 123)Well good evening to, the dirty bordellosAnd good evening to, the girls who work uptownAnd say hello, well hello, to the gay young fellowsWho make their love, on the meat rackIn their sister's gownsWell I ain't no king, but I ain't no princessAnd I don't get drunk, no noBut I can still be blown awayThe phantom lover of the futureAnd I don't go to work'Cause I sleep all through the dayTalkin' 'bout*Night, night, night, night slummin'Night, night, night, night slummin'Night, night, night, night slummin'So when you see me tonightI'd be reaching the heightsso were comingI never counted on ...All the good things have been taken away from meAww, heavy or hard, I know those younger punchesCause tonight is another day for destinyWell the damage is done, hey I can't really feel itWell I don't fault your love andThe bathroom stains, oh yeahAnd its a little too fast and dieing too youngThat's what we're talking aboutWell it's this slummin' that makes meStop to think(*Repeat Chorus)Night, night, night, night slummin'Night, night, night, night slummin'(goodnight)Night, night, night, night slummin'(yeah, yeah)
