Song Lyrics - Ladies Night
Mmmm oh yeah, oh what a night
Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's ladies night
Oh what a night (oh what a night)
Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's ladies night
Oh what a night
Girls, y'all got one (what!)
A night that's special everywhere
From New York to Hollywood
It's ladies night
And girl the feeling's good
Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's ladies night
Oh what a night (oh what a night)
Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's ladies night
Oh what a night
Romantic Lady , single baby
Mmmm sophisticated mama (whooo)
Come on you disco lady yeah
Stay with me tonight , mama ,yeah
If you hear any noise
It ain't the boys , it's ladies night , uh huh
Gonna step out ladies night
Steppin' out ladies night
Gonna step out ladies night

Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right

Oh what a night (oh what a night)
Oh yes it's ladies night
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's ladies night
Oh what a night
On disco lights your name will be seen
You can fulfill all your dreams
Party here, party there, everywhere
This is your night, baby
You've got to be there
This is your night
Tonight , everything is gonna be alright
This is your night
Tonight , everything is gonna be alright
