Dawn patrol is makin' the rounds
|
Been goin' at it since the sun went down
|
I'll be sleepin' it off from
|
Another night of tyin' one on.
|
|
The sun is risin' and I'm layin' low
|
Been compromisin' my get up and go
|
And I'll be burnin' it up
|
Till both ends of the candle are gone.
|
|
And I've seen too many smoke filled bars
|
Seems like they're never gonna set me free
|
You might not see the scars
|
But this nightlife's beatin' the daylights out of me.
|
|
Out on the town
|
Like the night before
|
Just when I thought
|
I couldn't go one more.
|
|
The sun sets down
|
I get up and do it again
|
Night lights are callin'
|
And I can't turn 'em down.
|
|
I've been revolvin' on
|
This merry-go-round for so long
|
And know where tomorrow starts
|
And when today'll end.
|
|
And I've seen too many smoke filled bars
|
Seems like they're never gonna set me free
|
You might not see the scars
|
But this nightlife's beatin' the daylights out of me.

Lord knows, I've seen too many smoke filled bars
|
Seems like they're never gonna set me free
|
You might not see the scars
|
But this nightlife's beatin' the daylights out of me.
|
|
Lord, this nightlife's beatin' the daylights out of me.
|
|
Lord, this nightlife's beatin' the daylights out of me...
