Wake up in time to see the sun going down
Turn on the six o'clock news
See what's happening in this town
I take a walk down to the corner
I meet those bad girls hanging around
Never doing what they oughta

(ooh yeah) caught up in the action
Gotta find the main attraction now
Gotta get some satisfaction
You better take me to the heart of that
Night life (looking for some)
Night life (need a little)
Night life (living in the daylight just don't agree with me)

Stealing through the night like a wolf on the prowl
Not a bird, not a plane, i'm just a mean old night owl
Watch me ... hit ... run ... gotta move on
Going wild in the night
'cause i'm hooked on the neon

(ooh yeah) i'm looking for some action
I gotta find my main attraction now
'cause i need some satisfaction
(ooh) won't you take me to the heart of that
Night life (a little bit of)
Night life (i need some)
Night life
Night life (full of bright lights and noise-time to separate the men from the boys)
