Rock and Roll Evening

So I’m walking along and everything’s fair, I'm OK, I’m trying to care
My Buddy say, ‘Hey, Look something’s happening right on over there.’
So we checked out the scene, looking for action
It’s just a blues bar, people dancing, people shouting
It wasn’t that long ago when I was a deuce
Need a couple drinks to get myself loose
My gal was great , she took care of things
Now I’m gonna have to learn how to swing
It’s a night on the town, my baby’s been gone awhile
Chorus:
It’s a rock and roll evening, folks are gettin’ down
Things are hoppin' and people are jumpin’ around
There's Girls to the left and girls to the right, I don’t know where to turn
But it’s a wonderful sight
It’s a night on the town, my baby’s been gone awhile
(Lead break)
So I strut on up to the bar
Inside I’m wondering how I let things get this far
But she’s doing great, everything’s just fine
Now I got to figure out whether to order a beer or a wine
It’s a night on the town and my baby’s been gone awhile
I’m working on getting myself back together again
This seems like the place to start, might have to try the gin
It’s tough going solo after a long while
But I’m beginning to groove, my face starts to smile
It’s a night on the town, my baby’s been gone awhile
Chorus:
It’s a rock and roll evening, folks are gettin’ down
Things are hoppin' and people are jumpin’ around
There's Girls to the left and girls to the right, I don’t know where to turn
But it’s a wonderful sight
It’s a night on the town, It’s a night on the town, It’s a night on the town
My baby’s been gone awhile
