  • She's just a night bird flyin' through the night
    Fly on
    She's just a night bird makin' a midnight, midnight fly
    Sail on
    Sail on, yeah yeah

    Well she's flyin' down to me
    Until tomorrow I'm gonna set her free
    Set her free
    So all we got baby is one precious night
    All we got is one precious night

    Put on your blues and shoes and things and rags
    Down under the bed
    Just wrap me up in your beautiful wings
    You better hear what I say yeah
    Oh, carry me baby

    Please take me through your dreams
    Inside your world I want to be
    Until tomorrow, no tears will be shed
    Hold on 'til the sun gets out of bed
    Hold on, hold on baby

    Sail on, sail on, sail on

    Sail on
    Right in my arms baby Writer/s: JIMI HENDRIX
