"Night Life" lyrics

Joe Bonamassa & Paul Rodgers Lyrics

"Night Life"
(originally by B.B. King)

Love have no mercy

When that evenin', evenin' sun goes down
Girl you gonna find me just hangin' around
You know, the night life, it ain't no good life
Oh, but it's my life, yes it's my life

Oh good people just like you and me
Well they're all dreamin', dreamin' what they all used to be
The night life, it sure ain't no good life
But I tell you it's my life, yeah

Oh, listen to the blues
Listen to what they're sayin'
Breaking through the darkness
That's the blues and the bars are waiting

They told me life, life is just an empty scene
Oh a memory, an avenue of broken dreams
But I told you the night life, it ain't no good life
Oh, but it's my life

Yeah-yeah, the night life and all those bright lights
But it's my life, my life, my life
Breaking through the darkness now
The night life, it ain't no good life
It ain't no good life, no good life, no good life
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
One more time
The night life, people, it ain't no good life
And it was B.B. King's life, oh yeah
The thrill lives on
