They Called it Music - Gibson Brothers

Verse 1:

I’ve honky tonked most all my life

My day begins at the end of night

I stay up late it don’t bother me

The darker the night the darker the night

The better I see.

Chorus:

The lights I love are the lights of town

I thank the Lord above when the sun goes down

I find a shady spot and that’s where I’ll be

The darker the night the darker the night

The better I see.

(Last time ending)

You heard me right the darker the night

The better I see.

Verse 2:

My hit parade has a bad recourse

but I guarantee that ya won’t get bored

It starts getting' good about a quarter til 3

The darker the night the darker the night

The better I see.

(Instrumental)

Verse 3:

I rest my case at the break of day

What some call work brother I call play

Cause I once was blind but now I’m free

The darker the night the darker the night

The better I see.
