In the Heat of the Night

In the heat of the night

Seems like a cold sweat

Creeping cross my brow

Yeah

In the heat of the night

I'm a feelin' motherless somehow

Stars with evil eyes stare from the sky

All mean and bright

In the heat of the night

Ain't a woman here before

Ohu

Knows how to make the morning come

Ohu

It's so hard to keep control

Ohu

When I could sell my soul

For just a little light

In the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

Ohu

I've got trouble wall to wall oh yes I have

Ohu

An' I repeat I repeat in the night

Ohu

Must be an ending to us all

Ohu

Oh lord it won't be long

Ohu

Just you be strong

And it'll be all right

In the heat of the night

In the heat of the night
