<b>I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight</b> by <i>Richard & Linda Thompson</i><br />

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 nights 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
