Donald Fagen - The Nightfly lyrics

rate me

I'm Lester the Nightfly Hello Baton Rouge Won't you turn your radio down Respect the seven second delay we use So you say there's a race Of men in the trees You're for tough legislation Thanks for calling I wait all night for calls like these An independent station WJAZ With jazz and conversation From the foot of Mt. Belzoni Sweet music Tonight the night is mine Late line 'til the sun comes through the skylight I've got plenty of java And Chesterfield Kings But I feel like crying I wish I had a heart like ice Heart like ice If you want your honey To look super swell You must spring for that little blue jar Patton's Kiss And Tell Kiss And Tell An independent station WJAZ With jazz and conversation From the foot of Mt. Belzoni Sweet music Tonight the night is mine Late line 'til the sun comes through the skylight You'd never believe it But once there was a time When love was in my life I sometimes wonder What happened to that flame The answer's still the same It was you, it was you Tonight you're still on my mind An independent station WJAZ With jazz and conversation From the foot of Mt. Belzoni Sweet music Tonight the night is mine Late line 'til the sun comes through the skylight
