Tonight Is the Night (Parts 1&2)

First of all I'd like to say good evening

And we are so pleased that so many of you could come out and share

In all the love and all the happiness that we have in store for ya

We want you to have a real good time

Cause that's just was we have in mind

Is that all right with you?

Now this is a tune that I composed

And it's called, Tonight is the night

That you make me a woman

Now I never intended recording this song, it was a personal point

That isn't until the day that my producer

Happened to thumb through the pages of my notebook

He came across the words and he said

We gotta do something with these words

It's happenin' everyday, and people wanna hear about it Betty

You see it's the story of a young girl making love for the very first time

Now when I finally got a melody

I took it home and I played it for my mother

And I gotta tell you a little bit about my mother

You see I come from one of those pretty large families

And I'm the baby of the family

You never you never grow to your mother

I never forget the way she looked at me

When I played it for her, she said

I like the music, you know, baby, the melody is really nice

But I know you not gonna sing that song

But we released it, oh yes we did

And it became of my biggest records too

So I want you to do this for me if you will

Everybody think back to your very first time

Now give a little while longer

Cause I know some of ya

Have to think back a little bit further than others

Come on now I want you to play catch up

Because I don't want you waiting till I get to the end of my song

Saying, oh yeah now I remember

Now whether it was good or you're just smiling it was good

Or on the other hand if it was not so good

Here's my story

Tonight is the night

That you make me a woman

You said you''ll be gentle with me

And I-I hope you will

I'm nervous and I'm trebling

Waiting for you to walk in

I'm trying hard to relax

But I just can't keep still, no

I can hear your car door slamming

I wanna play big girl and put on a sexy smile

But I know so little about what love is

I just can't help acting like a child

You're knocking on my door

And you're ringing my bell

Hope you're not impatient after waiting so very long

A whole year I put you off with my silly hang-ups

And we are both old enough to know right from wrong

Tonight is the night

That you make me a woman

You said you''ll be gentle with me

And I-I hope you will

I'm nervous and I'm trembling

Waiting for you to walk in

Trying hard to relax

But I just can't keep still

Hey baby

Oh, oh, baby

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, but what if my mama should come home early

And catch us doing what we are doing

Not only will I never live it down

But my whole family relationship, it'll all be ruined

But we've gone a little bit too far now

Oh to turn around

So let's just pray

That true love is what we've found

Tonight, tonight

Tonight, tonight, oh

I'll never forget tonight

No, no, I'll never forget tonight

That's when you make me feel real

You make me feel real, real good

Oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa whoa

Yeah, and I wanna thank your love

Said I've got to thank your love

'Cause you make me feel good

And I love you baby

I love you and I know it

I need to probably show it

Cause I love you, baby

And I need you

I want you my love

My love, my, my, my, my baby

I'll never forget tonight, no

I'll never forget tonight cause you made me feel good

And I love you, baby

You made me feel real good and I love you, baby

Cause you gave me pure love, yeah

Pure love said I like that, baby

Pure love said I need that, sugar

Pure love there is nothing phony about it

Pure love, your love and I can't do without it

Pure love oh

I love him, I know it, I ain't too proud to show it

I love him, I know it, I ain't too proud to show it

I love him, I know it, I ain't too proud to show it

I love him, I know it and I ain't too proud to show it

Tonight, tonight

Tonight, tonight

Thank you, thank you
