Nanci Griffith - Fly by Night lyrics
(Nanci Griffith)
 Oh, its just another summer mornin', Baby, somewhere in this town
 The heat is rising
 Oh, I know where you spent last night so you can stop apologizing
 You say that you've been out... just lookin' around this town
 I don't wanna know just exactly what you've found
 Because tonight I'm goin' out on these streets and watch the lonely hearts
 Go flyin'
 Don't they fly by night
 Yeah tonight I'm goin' out on these streets and watch the lonely hearts
 Go flyin'
 I'll be standin' on the corner watchin' the men folk go by
 I don't wanna touch 'em honey, I'll look them in the eye
 And say, "Tonight I am out on these streets to watch the lonely hearts
 Go flyin"
 Oh, I never put a chain upon your heart or tried to make you walk the
 Line for me
 Only a fool would want a heart that needs a chain to keep it restin'
 Here beside of meNanci Griffith - Fly by Night - http://motolyrics.com/nanci-griffith/fly-by-night-lyrics.html
 You say you wished I cared what you did with your time
 But what's your time is yours and tonight is gonna be mine
 And I'm goin' out on these streets tonight
 To watch the lonely hearts go flyin'
 Don't they fly by night
 I'm going out on these streets tonight
 To watch the lonely hearts go flyin'
 I'm comin' out of your pocket and into my own
 I'm gonna have a stronger heart when I round the bend for home
 Now I'm goin' out on these streets tonight
 To watch the lonely hearts go flyin'
 Don't they fly by night
 I'm going out on these streets tonight
 To watch the lonely hearts go flyin'
 I'll be standin' on the corner watchin' the men folk go by
 I don't wanna touch 'em honey, I'll look them in the eye
 And say, "Tonight I am out on these streets to watch the lonely hearts
 Go flyin"
 Oh, they fly by night
 I'm going out on these streets tonight to watch the lonely hearts go flyin'
