Syesha Mercado - Thank the Lord for the Night Time Lyrics April 29, 2008
Daytime turns me off, and I dont mean maybe
Nine-to-five aint taking me where Im bound
When its done, I run out to see my baby
We get groovin when the sun goes down

I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up-, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation
Its a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you

I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up-, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation
Its a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
I thank the Lord for you
