Lyrics
ALL NIGHT LONG No 273 TAXI No L-0403-1463
BABY I DON?T WANNA SEE YOU,
JUST FOR THE COLOUR OF YOU HAIR,
I GUESS YOU KNOW WHY I NEED YOU,
IT AIN?T JUST FOR YOUR SEXY STARE,
AND YOU KNOW I DON?T LOVE YOU,
AND I KNOW YOU DON?T REALLY CARE,
BUT THAT NIGHT AFTER THE BAR ROOM,
BABE YOU REALLY TOOK ME THERE.
???????..CHORUS??????????????????????????.
ALL NIGHT, IT WAS ALL NIGHT, ALMOST ALL NIGHT LONG,
IT WAS ALL NIGHT, ALMOST ALL NIGHT, NEARLY ALL NIGHT LONG.
???????????????????????????????????????.
YOU SHOWED ME HOW TO HOLD ON,
AND TAUGHT ME HOW TO SMILE,
YOU GAVE ME WHAT I NEEDED,
KEPT IT BUILDING UP INSIDE,
IN MY PAST I WAS A RACER,
I NEVER USED TO UNDERSTAND,
THAT YOU COULD GET THERE QUICKER, SLOWLY
YOU REALLY TOOK ME RIGHT IN HAND.
CHORUS
IT WAS TIME TO TURN THE TABLE,
LEARNING YOU TO SING A SONG,
AND AFTER TEACHING ME YOUR LANGUAGE,
I KNOW WHERE I WAS GOING WRONG,
I MADE YOU HIT THE HIGH NOTES,
TOLD YOU HOW THE SONG WAS SUNG,
IT FELT SO GOOD TO HEAR YOU MAKE IT,
AND UNDERSTAND MY MOTHER TOUNGE.
