In the Heat of the Night lyrics

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

Knows how to make the morning come

So hard to keep control

Well I could sell my soul,oh, for just a little light

In the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

I've got trouble wall to wall

Oh yes I have

And I repeat,oh, I repeat in the night

Must be an ending to us all

Oh Lord, it won't be long

Just you be strong

And it'll be all right

In the heat of the night
