Lady Of The Night - Isaac Hayes

They call her the lady of the night

She’s a woman of the world

And easy-living girl with love for sale

That’s what they call her the lady of the night

No one seems to know her name

And even less about the place

From where she came

Every evening when the night is close at hand

You’ll find the lady on the Rue d’Avignon

In a half lit hotel doorway the lady advertises warmly

It’s just a job but she’ll do the best she can

Don’t try to change this lady of the night

She’s a lot like you and me

And less than what she seems to be

(She is the lady of the night)

And easy-living girl

(she is the lady of the night)

She’s a woman of the world

(she is the lady of the night)

With lots of loving for sale

(she is the lady of the night)

Lady lady of the night

Round here they call her the lady of the night

In a perfume hotel room

Shadows dance upon the wall and fate at dawn

She’s no beginner this lady of the night

Never try that funny stuff

'cause lady can be tough

Be warned!

(She is the lady of the night)

She’s a lot like you and me

(she is the lady of the night)

And never just what she seems

(she is the lady of the night)

No one seems to know her name

(she is the lady of the night)

Or the place from where she came
