Gonna Be A Blackout Tonight

Gonna be a blackout

Gonna nail a black curtain up good an' tight

Gonna do what my air raid man says it's right

I'm gonna pull down my shades an' turn out my light

There's gonna be a blackout tonight

'Cause my town is big and my town is bright

My town can work and my town can fight

So don't strike no light and don't 'cause a riot

There's gonna be a blackout tonight

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Gonna do what my air raid man says it's right

Blackout tonight

Pull down my shades an' turn out the light

Lights will go out all over town

The air raid warden walks up and down

It's part of the war I'm gonna do right

There's gonna be a blackout tonight

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Gonna be a blackout

Gonna do what my air raid man says it's right

Blackout tonight

Pull down my shades an' turn out the light

My town is big and my town is bright

My town can work and my town can fight

Lights will go out all over town

The air raid warden walks up and down

'Cause it's part of the war I'm gonna do right

There's gonna be a blackout tonight

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Blackout tonight, gonna be a blackout

Gonna be a blackout

Gonna do what my air raid man says it's right

Blackout tonight

Pull down my shades an' turn out the light
