I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight - Richard and Linda Thompson/Julie Covington

  
I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight
I’m so tired of working every day, 
Now the weekend’s come, I’m gonna throw my troubles away 
If you’ve got the cab fare, mister you’ll do all right 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

Meet me at the station don’t be late 
I need to spend some money and it just won’t wait 
Take me to the dance and hold me tight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

There’s crazy people running all over town 
There’s a silver band just marching up and down 
And the big boys are all spoiling for a fight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

Meet me at the station, don’t be late 
I need to spend some money and it just won’t wait 
Take me to the dance and hold me tight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

A couple of drunken knights rolling on the floor 
Is just the kind of mess I’m looking for 
I’m gonna dream ‘till Monday comes in sight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

Meet me at the station, don’t be late 
I need to spend some money and it just won’t wait 
Take me to the dance and hold me tight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight 

Take me to the dance and hold me tight 
I want to see the bright lights tonight
