In the Heat of the Night lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the heat of the night
Seems like a cold sweat creepin' 'cross my brow
In the heat of the night
I'm feelin' motherless somehow
Stars with evil eyes
Stare from the skies
All mean and bright

[Bridge]
Ain't a man yet been born
Knows how to make the mornin' come
So hard to keep control
When I'd sell my soul
For just a little light

[Verse 2]
In the heat of the night
When I got trouble
When I got trouble wall-to-wall
I repeat in the night
Must be an ending to it all
Oh Lord, it won't be long
Just you be strong
And it'll be alright
[Outro]
In the heat
In the heat of the night
In the heat of the night
