It's a hot night, the natives are restless We're sweating by the light of the moon There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go That could knock a witch off her broom We slither on in and shed our skin Make our way into the bump and the grind So I'm passing by, she gives me the eye So I stop to give her a light One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night Havin' as much fun as you can in your clothes Margarita had me feelin' alright It just might be that I found religion I've been on my knees for half of the night Then I'm rolling the bones with Jimmy 'no dice' Gonna take him for a couple weeks' pay Man, if you lose this roll I take your girlfriend home So I stopped But you're not gonna believe who comes walking out One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life is for the living so You gotta live it up, come on let's go) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life if for the living so You gotta live it up, come on let's go) One wild, one wild, one wild, one.. One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone) For one wild night One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life is for the living) All we've got is one wild night One wild night [Repeat: x4] One wild night blinded by the moonlight One wild night 24 hours of midnight One wild night stepped into the twilight zone for One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night.
