On Through the Night Songtext
von All Night Radio

Friday night in Boksburg
Walking home from the steel mill
I′ve got my paycheck in my hand
I'm thinking Sally will you love me still

In twenty-three years, in twenty-three years
When the only thing that we′ve had
Is pain, sweat and tears

Oh, this town is killing us
From day-to-day
When I see the people walking by
Sally, we ain't going to head that way

We're heading on through the night
On through the night, just you and me
On through the night
Heading out, baby


You climbed in my car
And as we pulled away
I heard myself say, Sally
We′re not staying here to die each day

We′re heading on through the night
On through the night, just you and me
On through the night
Heading out, baby

Oh, Sally baby when you take my hand
I can see that look in your eyes
And I know that you understand

Stopped at some roadhouse
It was 2 a.m.
We didn't know where we were
But it′s easier heading out than heading in

We're heading on through the night
On through the night, just you and me
On through the night
Heading out, baby
