Daytime turns me off, and I don't mean maybe
Nine-to-five ain't taking me where I'm bound
When it's done, I run out to see my baby
We get groovin' when the sun goes down

I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up-, uptight time
Baby, chase it away

I get relaxation
It's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you

I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up-, uptight time
Baby, chase it away

I get relaxation
It's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
