As you brush your shoes
Stand before the mirror
And you comb your hair
Grab your coat and hat
And you walk, wet streets
Tryin' to remember
All the wild night breezes
In your mem'ry ever
And ev'rything looks so complete
When you're walkin' out on the street
And the wind catches your feet
Sends you flyin', cryin'
Wild night is calling, alright
Wild night is calling
And all the girls walk by
Dressed up for each other
And the boys do the boogie-woogie
On the corner of the street
And the people, passin' by
Stare in wild wonder
And the inside juke-box
Roars out just like thunder
And ev'rything looks so complete
When you walk out on the street
And the wind catches your feet
And sends you flyin', cryin'
Wild night is calling
Alright
Wild night is calling, alright
The wild night is calling
The wild night is calling
Come on out and dance
Whoa, come on out and make romance
Yes, indeed
Come on out and dance
Come on out, make romance
The wild night is calling, alright
The wild night is calling
Come on out an dance
Yeah, come on out 'n make romance
Come on out and dance, alright
Come on out, n' make romance.

I don't care if you're black, white, Asian Latino or if you're from the projects, suburbs, downtown, or uptown...EVERYONE should play this song to get ready for a night out on the town. Always!

[Cody DallaValle]

This song always reminds me of the long drive from my house to the hospital I made every night. I went to see my brother every night in the hospital. He was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma, he's alright now but this song still makes me really emotional

[brluvsbd]

takes me back to those carefree days and all those wild nights. What great music then and now. It's to bad the youth of today couldn't see what a era it was back then.
