John Hiatt - Long Night Lyrics
3 on a fever, down in the dumpsThe 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumpsThe 3rd writes a letter to his familySays Id kill everyone if it was up to meEarly in the bathroom, looking for a drainPassing at the misery, just to ease the painScared at the turbid, looking for a lightAnything at all to get through the long nightLong night, long nightWell everybodys got the fever and relief is not in sightLong night, long nightLord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetiteUp against the window and up against the wallAnd up against religion and up against it allNo place to run to and no place to hideYou know the night will fall and you will crawl insideWell I get up in the morning, its the same old newsSomebodys been wearing someone elses shoes.I cripple to his crutches, Im off to the lightWell one and all, we run from the long night.Long night, long nightWell everybodys got the fever and relief is not in sightLong night, long nightLord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetiteI dont wanna do that jiveToo late... its too late3 on a fever, down in the dumpsThe 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumpsThe 3rd writes a letter to his familyI said Id kill everyone if it was up to meLong night, long nightWell everybodys got the fever and relief is not in sightLong night, long nightLord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite
