Spirit in the night

1. Crazy Janey and her mission man

were back in the alley tradin’ hands.

‘Long came Wild Billy and his friend G-man
|A |Em7 |Em7
all duded up for Saturday night.
Well, Billy slammed on his coaster brakes
and said: “Anybody would wanna go up to Greasy Lake?
It’s about a mile down on the dark side of Route 88,
I got a bottle of rose so let’s try it.
|G |Cmaj7
We’ll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe,
|Em |D |D |D |D
and I’ll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go. They’re built like light, oh, and they dance like…
|Hm |F#m |G |Hm
Refr. Spirits in the night (all night), in the night (all night). Oh you don’t know what they can do to you.
|Hm |F#m | G |Hm
Spirits in the night (all night), oh, in the night (all night). Stand right up and let her shoot through you.”

2. Wild Billy was a crazy cat
and he shook some dust out of his coon skin cap.
He said: “Trust some of this, it’ll show you where you’re at,
or at least it’ll help you really feel it.”
By the time we made it up to Greasy Lake,
I had my head out the window and Janey’s fingers were in my cake.
I think I really dug her, well, I was too loose to fake.
I said: “I’m hurt.” She said: “Honey, let me heal it.”
And we danced all night to a soul fairy band, and she kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can.
She felt so nice, just as soft as a…

3. Now the night was bright and the stars threw lights
on Billy and Davy dancing in the moonlight.
They were down near the water in a stone mud fight,
Killer Joe gone passed out on the lawn.
Well, now Hazy Davy got really hurt.
He ran into the lake in just his socks and a shirt.
Me and Crazy Janey were making love in the dirt,
singing our birthday songs.
Janey said it was time to go, so we closed our eyes and said goodbye to Gypsy Angel Row.
It felt so right, together we moved like…
Refr.
