I was a little too tall could have used a few pounds
Tight pants points hollerin' out
She was black haired beauty with big dark eyes
Points all her own settin' way up high
Way up firm and high

Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the backseat of my sixty Chevy
Workin' on mysteries without any clues
Workin' on the night moves
Tryin' to make some front page drivin' news
Workin' on the night moves

In the summertime
Mmm in the sweet summertime

We weren't in love, oh no far from it
We weren't out searchin' for that pie in the sky summit
She was just young and restless and bored
Livin' by the sword
And we'd steal away every chance we could
To the backrooms, the allies, or the trusty woods
I used her she used me but neither on cared
We were gettin' our share
Workin' on the night moves
Tryin' to lose the awkward teenage blues
Workin' on the night moves

Mmm and it was summertime
Mmm sweet summertime summertime

Ohhh
Wonderin'
Felt the lightnin' yeah
And we waited on on the thunder
Waited on the thunder

I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered
Started hummin' a song from nineteen sixty two
Ain't it funny how the night moves
When just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closin in

Mmm
Night moves
Mmmm
Night moves
Yeah
I remember
Oh sure remember the night moves
Ain't it funny how you remember
Ain't it funny how you remember
I remember I remember I remember I remember
oooohh ohh ohh
And we were workin'
workin' and practicin'
workin' and practicin' all of the night moves
Night moves
ooooh I remember
yeah yeah I remember
Lord I remember lord I remember
