Lyrics

There is an ill wind blowin'
With no let up in sight
Evil ill wind blowin'
And I been up all night

Simple solemn slumber
Seems to slip away
Lord help me go under
I've been up all day

Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing? ooh

I've been a victim of these white lies
Since I was seventeen
You could say i've been everywhere
But you can't say what i've seen

And lookin' back on my life
Deep though it has been
I'll end up like a jack knife
Standing in the wind

Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?

(Tonight)

What am I missing

(Tonight)

And lookin' back on my life
Deep though it has been
I'll end up like a jack knife
Standing in the wind

Something's going on tonight
Something's going on tonight
There's a lil wind goin'
Can't you feel it blowin'

(Repeat to fade)
