Lyrics:

In a cold hard world when you''re out on your own**lf****lf**Oh**lf**There''s a cruel harsh word you''ll get to know.**lf**No one understands what it''s like in misery**lf****lf**All the great demands your love has made on me**lf**In the heat**lf**In the heat of the night.**lf**In the heat**lf**In the heat of the night.**lf****lf**As their faces turn everywhere that you go**lf****lf**It''s the eyes that burn right through to your sole.**lf**Feel the rhythm of the street**lf****lf**A distant scream from who knows where -**lf**Now the picture is complete**lf**Through the dark and running scared.**lf**In the heat**lf**In the heat of the night.**lf**In the heat**lf**In the heat of the night.**lf****lf**In the heat**lf**In the heat**lf****lf**No one understands in the heat of the night.**lf****lf**No one understands in the heat of the night. . . .
