SYLVIA WAS WORKIN'
AS A WAITRESS
IN BEAUMONT
SHE SAID
I'M MOVIN' AWAY
I'M GONNA GET
WHAT I WANT
I'M TIRED OF THESE
SMALL TOWN BOYS
THAT DON'T
MOVE FAST ENOUGH
I'M GONNA FIND ME ONE
WHO WEARS
A LEATHER JACKET
AND LIKES HIS
LIVIN' ROUGH
SO SHE SAVED HER TIPS
AND OVERTIME
AND BOUGHT AN OLD
RUSTY CAR
SHE SOLD MOST
EVERYTHING SHE HAD
TO MAKE
A BRAND NEW START
SHE SAID I WON'T
BE NEEDIN' THESE
SILLY DRESSES
AND NYLON HOSE
CAUSE WHEN I GET
TO WHERE I'M GOIN'
I'M GONNA BUY ME
ALL NEW CLOTHES
THE NIGHT'S TOO LONG
IT JUST DRAGS
ON AND ON
AND THEN THERE'S
NEVER ENOUGH
THAT'S WHEN THE SUN
STARTS COMIN' UP
DON'T LET GO
OF HER HAND
YOU JUST MIGHT BE
THE RIGHT MAN
SHE LOVES THE NIGHT
SHE LOVES THE NIGHT
SHE DOESN'T WANT
THE NIGHT
DON'T WANT IT TO END
DON'T WANT IT TO END
WELL SHE WORKS
IN AN OFFICE NOW
AND SHE GUESSES
THE PAY'S ALRIGHT
SHE CAN BUY
A FEW NEW THINGS
TO WEAR
AND STILL GO OUT
AT NIGHT
AND AS SOON
AS SHE GETS
HOME FROM WORK
SHE WANTS TO BE OUT
WITH THE CROWD
WHERE SHE CAN DANCE
AND TOSS
HER HEAD BACK
AND LAUGH OUT LOUD
WELL THE MUSIC'S
PLAYIN' FAST
AND THEY JUST MET
HE PRESSES UP
AGAINST HER
AND HIS SHIRT'S
ALL SOAKED
WITH SWEAT
AND WITH HER BACK
AGAINST THE BAR
SHE CAN LISTEN
TO THE BAND
AND SHE'S POURIN'
A CORONA
AND IT'S COLD
AGAINST HER HAND
THE NIGHT'S TOO LONG
IT JUST DRAGS
ON AND ON
AND THEN THERE'S
NEVER ENOUGH
THAT'S WHEN THE SUN
STARTS COMIN' UP
DON'T LET GO
OF HER HAND
YOU JUST MIGHT BE
THE RIGHT MAN
SHE LOVES THE NIGHT
SHE LOVES THE NIGHT
SHE DOESN'T WANT
THE NIGHT
DON'T WANT IT TO END
DON'T WANT IT
TO END
DON'T WANT IT
TO END
