In The Heat Of The Night - Bill Champlin

In the heat of the night

Cold sweat creeping cross my brow

In the heat of the night

I’m feeling motherless somehow

Stars with evil eyes stare down from the sky

Are beaming bright

(In the heat of the night)

In the heat of the night

Got me some troubles wall to wall

In the heat of the night

Must be an ending to it all

Just hold on and it won’t be long

Just be strong

And it’ll be alright

(In the heat of the night)

Ain’t a woman yet been born

Who could make the morning come

It’s so hard to keep control

When I could sell my soul for just a little light

(In the heat of the night)

Just be strong

And it’ll be alright
