Gonna be a blackout
Gonna nail a black curtain up good an' tight
Gonna do what my air raid man says is 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 stike no light and don't cause a riot
There's gonna be a blackout, tonight
chorus:
blackout tonight
Gonna be a blackout, blackout tonight
Gonna be a blackout
Gonna do what my air raid man says is right
Blackout tonight
Pull down my shades an' turn out the light
Lights will go out all over town
And the air raid warden will walks up and down
It's part of the war, I'm gonna do right
There's gonna be a blackout tonight
(chorus)
