Night Come Down - Redbone

I know there’s somethin' in the wind that’s cryin'

There’s only trouble in the land of plenty

If you don’t do something, and now

Or take your final vow

Girl, you won’t be ready when the night come down

Better look out, now

The night is comin' down

If you just give a little bit, stop takin'

When someone’s starvin' at the gate, don’t pig in

Did you lose something that you had?

What made you turn your back?

Yeah, you won’t be ready when the night come down

Better look out, now

The night is comin' down

Don’t keep your love locked in your soul

Don’t be so damn cold

Let me be my own man

Don’t make me a fool

My precious freedom, I want it

So give it to me, don’t make me take it

You won’t be ready when the night come down

Better look out, now

The night is comin' down

I know there’s somethin' in the wind that’s cryin'

There’s only trouble in the land of plenty

If you don’t do something, and now

Or take your final vow

Yeah, you won’t be ready when the night come down

You better look out, now

The night is comin' down

Don’t keep your love locked in your soul

Don’t be so damn cold

Let me be my own man

Don’t make me a fool

My precious freedom, I want it

So give it to me, don’t make me take it

You won’t be ready when the night come down

You better look out, now

The night is comin' down

There’s people cryin' in a state of sorrow

And under shootin' through the right of power

There’s no more time to hesitate

The hour’s getting late

And you won’t be ready when the night come down

You better look out, now

The night is comin' down
