Night by Night

"It's a beggars life", Said the Queen of Spain

But don't tell it to a poor man

'Cause he's got to kill for every thrill

The best he can

Everywhere around me

I see jealousy and mayhem

Because no men have all their peace of mind

To carry them

Well I don't really care

If it's wrong or if it's right

But until my ship comes in

I'll live night by night

When the joker tried to tell me

I could cut it in this rube town

When he tried to hang that sign on me

I said "Take it down"

When the dawn patrol got to tell you twice

They're gonna do it with a shotgun

Yes, I'm cashing in this ten-cent life

For another one

Well I ain't got the heart

To lose another fight

So until my ship comes in

I'll live night by night

Well I don't really care

If it's wrong or if it's right

But until my ship comes in

I'll live night by night

Night by night

Night by night

Night by night

Night by night
