When
the clubs are all closed
and you're alone in the city
the raincoat man might be
on the corner
let me ask you one question
do you believe in your gun?
you're kissin'your baby
but you'd better go home
Tonite is the long goodbye
no matter who lives
no matter who dies
(better run for your life)
You walk like an animal
and it's dark in the street
listen to the fear at your feet
Don't ask him a favour
he'll not give you a chance
you're a real gangster
in a dirty romance
You hold a Smith and Wesson
and you're runnin'like a fool
you're shakin'like a junkie
man you got to loose
you know he's got a Magnum
there's no way to choose
better turn around
and put on your flying shoes
Tonite is the long goodbye
no matter who lives
no matter who dies
