In the Heat of the Night Lyrics

A golden summer night
I'm lying in my bed, can't find no sleep
Euphoria in my head
Reminding me that life is but a dream

I'm walking in the streets
Got power in my arms, I feel the heat
I'm restless and I'm young
My music's rock 'n' roll, it's the the air I breathe

I need to find some direction
Leave everything behind
So if you get my intention
I've got an axe to grind

In the heat of the night
I'm gonna take my chances
In the heat of the night
See me running wild
In the heat of the night
Watch as the fire dances
In the heat of the night
In the dark of the night

One thing I know for sure
It doesn't matter if you're black or white
(Listen) Just stick to your guns
And one day everything will turn out right

I don't need your protection
To live fast and die young
I'll follow reckless abandon
Until I'm dead and gone

On the wings of the sunset comes the night
And after the darkness I know there is light

Yeah!
