Night Moves – The Band Of Heathens (feat. Butch Walker) (originally by Bob Seger)

I was a little too tall, could’ve used a few pounds Tight pants points, hardly renowned She was a black-haired beauty with big dark eyes And points of her own, sittin’ way up high Way up firm and high
Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy Out in the back seat of my ’60 Chevy Workin’ on mysteries without any clues
Workin’ on our night moves Tryin’ to make some front page drive-in news Workin’ on our night moves
In the summertime Umm, in the sweet summertime
We weren’t in love, oh no, we weren’t far from it We weren’t searchin’ for some pie in the sky summit We were just young and restless and bored Livin’ by the sword
And we’d steal away every chance we could To the backroom, to the alley or the trusty woods I used her, she used me but neither one cared We were gettin’ our share
Workin’ on our night moves Tryin’ to lose the awkward teenage blues Workin’ on our night moves
Oh, wonderin’ Felt the lightning, yeah Waited on the thunder Waited on the thunder
I woke last night to the sound of thunder How far off I sat and wondered? Started hummin’ a song from 1962 Ain’t it funny how the night moves? When you just don’t seem to have as much to lose Strange how the night moves With autumn closin’ in
Oh… night moves, oh…
(Night moves) night moves (Night moves) oh… (Night moves) I remember (Night moves) I sure remember the night moves (Night moves) ain’t it funny how you remember? (Night moves) funny how you remember (Night moves) I remember, I remember, I remember …
