[Part I: The Needle and the Damage Done]
[Verse 1]
I caught you knockin' at my cellar door
I love you, baby, can I have some more?
Oh, oh, the damage done
[Verse 2]
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done
[Verse 3]
I sing the song, because I love the man
I know that some of you don’t understand
Milk-blood to keep from running out
[Verse 4]
I've seen the needle and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin’ sun
[Part II: Tonight's the Night]
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
[Verse 1]
Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van
A sparkle was in his eyes
But his life was in his hands
Well, late at night when the people were gone
He used to pick up his guitar
And sing a song in a shaky voice
That was real as the day was long
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight’s the night
[Verse 2]
Early in the morning, at the break of day
He used to sleep ’til the afternoon
And if you never heard him sing
I guess you won't too soon
’Cause, people, let me tell you
It sent a chill up and down my spine
When I picked up the telephone
And heard that he died out on the mainline
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight’s the night
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Oh
Tonight's the night
