Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night.

Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van.
A sparkle was in his eye
But his life was in his hands.

Well, late at night
when the people were gone
He used to pick up my guitar
And sing a song in a shaky voice
That was real as the day was long.

Tonight´s the night, yes it is,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night, yes it is,
tonight´s the night.

Early in the mornin´
at the break of day
He used to sleep
until the afternoon.
If you never heard him sing
I guess you won´t too soon.

´Cause people let me tell you
It sent a chill
up and down my spine
When I picked up the telephone
And heard that he´d died
out on the mainline.

Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night.

Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van.
Well, early in the morning
at just about the break of day
He used to sleep
until the afternoon.

Tonight´s the night, yes it is,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night
Tonight´s the night,
tonight´s the night.
