Every Night
Paul McCartney · McCartney [1970]
Every day I don't wanna get up, get out of my bed
Every night I want to play out
And every day I wanna do
But tonight I just wanna stay in
And be with you, and be with you
Every day I lean on a lamppost, I'm wasting my time
Every night I lay on a pillow, resting my mind
Every morning brings a new day
And every night that day is through
But tonight I just wanna stay in
And be with you, and be with you
Believe me mama
