THE CACTUS FLOWERS BLOOMED
THE MEXICALI MOON WAS RISING
BUT TONIGHT ITS JUST NOT ANY NIGHT
IT'S THAT ONCE IN YOUR LIFE

YOU KNOW HE'S COMING..

SMILING ON THE PILLOW
AT THE BREAK OF DAY
HE'D CALLED FROM AMARILLO
TO SAY HE'S ON HIS WAY

FROM THE MOMENT HE LEFT HER
GONE WORKING FOR MIGRANT'S PAY
SHE'S BEEN WAITING SO LONG
NOW THE BABY IS ON ITS WAY

IF ITS..TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT

NOW SHE'S OVER THE RAINBOW
AND FELT SO LONELY TWO DAYS AGO
DOWN THE COAST WHERE THEY USED TO GO
SHE WILL BE STANDING BY

'CAUSE ITS..TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT

JUST TO FEEL YOUR HAND IN MINE
MAKES MY HEARTBEAT FASTER EVERY TIME
JUST TO FEEL YOUR HAND IN MINE
IT WILL HEAL ALL OF MY WOUNDS TONIGHT

YOU KNOW HE'S COMING HOME BABY
YOU KNOW HE'S COMING HOME NOW

HE'S OVER CROSS THE BORDER
JUST ESCAPED FROM THE JAIL NOW
THE GREYHOUND'S COMING
HE JUST WANNA BE AROUND FOR THE BABY
‘CAUSE HE HAS A REASON NOW
HE KNOWS WHAT THEIR LIFE NEEDS NOW

JUST..TONIGHT TONIGHT
THERE’S NO WRONG OR RIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT
TONIGHT TONIGHT

YOU KNOW HE’S COMIN’
YOU KNOW HE’S COMIN’
YOU KNOW HE’S COMIN’
HE’S GONNA BE RIGHT NEXT TO YOU
YOU THINKING NOW
IT'S GONNA BE A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
FOR JUST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE..

TONIGHT TONIGHT..
