Lyrics The Night Bird Gets the Love - Phyllis Hyman
I
used
to
rise
up
in
the
morning
Just
about
the
crack
of
dawn
And
I
struggle
to
the
bathroom
Try
to
put
my
makeup
on
I
tried
to
get
myself
together
To
join
the
daily
push
and
shove
Spend
my
daytime
working
There
is
no
time
for
making
love
'Til
you
came
along
And
spoke
my
name
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Soaring
through
the
night
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Everything's
feeling
alright
'Cause
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
Oh,
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
(the
night
bird
gets
the
love)
Get-get-get---
Gets
the
love--
I'm
getting
the
love--
Oh,
now
I
rise
up
in
the
evening
About
the
time
the
moon
comes
up
And
I
spread
my
wings
across
the
darkness
And
I
feel
your
loving
come
And
we
fly
to
quiet
places
Lying
softly
as
a
dove
Spend
my
nighttime
grooving
now
The
night's
my
time
for
love
Since
you
came
along
And
spoke
my
name
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Soaring
through
the
night
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Everything's
feeling
alright
'Cause
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
Oh,
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
(the
night
bird
gets
the
love)
Getting
the
love---
I'm
gonna
get
the
love---
I'm
gonna
get
the
love---------
(The
night
bird
gets
the
love)
[Scatting]
Since
you
came
along
And
spoke
my
name
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Soaring
through
the
night
Now
I
am
the
night
bird
Everything's
feeling
alright
'Cause
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
Ooh,
I
found
out
that
the
early
bird
will
get
the
business
But
the
night
bird
gets
the
love
(the
night
bird
gets
the
love)
Oh-------I'm
getting
the
love
Ooh,
I'm
gonna
get
the
love
Oh,
I'm
gonna
get
it
Sho'
nuff,
I'm
gonna
get
it
Oh,
I'm
gonna
get
it
I'm
gonna
get
the
love
Ooh,
I'm
gonna
get
it
Oh,
I'm
gonna
get
it
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-------ooh----------
