Long Night Lyrics - John Hiatt

3 on a fever, down in the dumps 

the 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumps 

the 3rd writes a letter to his family 

says I'd kill everyone if it was up to me 

Early in the bathroom, looking for a drain 

passing at the misery, just to ease the pain 

Scared at the turbid, looking for a light 

anything at all to get through the long night 

long night, long night 

well everybody's got the fever and relief is not in sight 

long night, long night 

lord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite

up against the window and up against the wall 

and up against religion and up against it all 

no place to run to and no place to hide 

you know the night will fall and you will crawl inside 

well I get up in the morning, it's the same old news 

Somebody's been wearing someone else's shoes. 

I cripple to his crutches, I'm off to the light 

Well one and all, we run from the long night. 

long night, long night 

Well everybody's got the fever and relief is not in sight 

long night, long night 

lord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite 

I don't wanna do that jive 

too late... it's too late 

3 on a fever, down in the dumps 

the 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumps 

the 3rd writes a letter to his family 

I said I'd kill everyone if it was up to me
