Loveless, Patty - The Night's Too Long Lyrics

I Miss The Good Ol’ Country Music As This One.

She's the best ❤️ country female artist in my opinion and she's good-looking too.

To all the girls out there like me . A Heartache might not always mend just give it time, Right? Well it may I'm not so sure about mine BUT it won't always hurt like HELL at least you can breath.

Perfection, love her voice.

Russell Smith. RIP

This song starts out like it's going to tell an interesting story, but it ends up not really going anywhere. It needs a couple more verses: one to tell about how she got from being a waitress in Beaumont to working in an office, and then one to tell what happened with the sweaty guy she met at the bar. The song kinda leaves me hanging.

2019 and I still love Miss Patty and this song !

Well, you live and learn, always thought this was Lucinda Williams. This is better. What a voice.

I more into southern rock but ever since i watched this video patty is so sexy wow and she the best. hell i am hooked

Bye Sylvia,Hope you find who your looking for, lots of love.

Sylvia was workin' as a waitress in Beaumont
She said I'm movin' away, I'm gonna get what I want
I'm tired of these small-town boys that don't move fast enough
I'm gonna find me one who wears a leather jacket and likes his livin' rough
So she saved her tips and overtime and bought an old rusty car
She sold most everything she had to make a brand new start
She said I won't be needing these silly dresses and nylon hose
'Cause when I get to where I'm goin' I'm gonna buy me all new clothes
The night's too long, 
It just drags on and on
And then there's never enough,
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand,
You just might be the right man
She loves the night, She loves the night
She doesn't want the night, don't want it to end
Don't want it to end.
She works in an office now and she guesses the pays all right
She can buy a few new things to wear and still go out at night
And as soon as she gets home from work she wants to be out with the crowd
Where she can dance and toss her hair back and laugh out loud
Well the music's playin' fast and they just met
He presses up against her and his shirt's all soaked with sweat
And with her back against the bar she can listen to the band
And she's holdin' a Corona and it's cold against her hand
The night's too long, It just drags on and on
And then there's never enough,
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand,
You just might be the right man
She loves the night, She loves the night
She doesn't want the night, don't want it to end
Don't want it to end.
Songwriters: Lucinda Williams

Best singer ever!!!

She was and is a great country singer.No disco country here.Pure and simple.

Great song and wonderful singer

One of the best female singers..

This was the first music video I ever fell in love with. I was then hooked on Patty Loveless. "Chains" was my first favorite song, but "The Night's too Long" was my first favorite video.

Best female country singers ever. So underrated. Shame on the labels and radio stations.

Patty loveless is a real country music lady singer and she is hot hot hot babe and good looking lady and Dee Ann poulin in Moore Oklahoma is too Glenn in Oklahoma

LOVE THIS SONG!

Prefer the Lucinda Williams version...more raw and real.

I like Lucinda's version too but you can't get more raw and real than Patty Loveless.

Best female singer ever

Just wonderful !!!! I love her voice...energy.

Patty and Tanya Tucker are the two most underated country artist ever. Love both.

What Real Country music sounds like, the so call wanna be country singers of today could learn alot from Patty on how to sing real country music and not that crap they sing.

Back in the early 90's, I had a Crush on her

so did everybody else

I still do

Written by Lucinda Williams and produced by Tony Brown, "The Night's Too Long" was released in September 1990 and reached #20 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks Chart.

bacsi19461 I've always loved patty....powerful voice, great classic country

sure like this. thanks

Back when music was about vocal talent, not pole dancing at the award shows and flapping your hair.

I love Patty and always will :)

Yes ! Definitely a Patty fan now !!! :)

I have always Loved Patty's Voice. I went to High School with a Girl that to this day is a Drop Dead Twin to Patty Loveless.

I agree. I collect and listen to all kinds of music and Patty Loveless is my favorite Female singer of all time. I cannot begin to tell you the joy that her music has brought to me over the years.

A song like this wouldn't be heard today. That is really bad and sad. A great singer and song.

I agree! Her songs SPEAK to me. Make me laugh, break my heart.....you know. She is my fave....always has been.

I've seen her in concerts twice. I just stood there, amazed...and in tears half the time! LOVED IT!!!

WOW, I LOVE THIS SONG ! i love singing along to it.. PATTY LOVELESS ROCKS !

Another great Lucinda Williams composition.
Nice version Patty - good choice!

One of the finest wetern singers. I like everything she does

wish i was russell smith singing back up with patty

Love Patty, but to me this will always be a Lucinda Williams song. Patty has good taste though ;)

dont know why people here keep saying its not a big time hit because it was. played all the time on the radio. been many years though. great song by patty, but then i have never heard her sing a bad one

Patty is one of the best female Country artists of all time.She has such a wonderful voice.Too bad we can't get women with voices like hers or any other of our beloved legends of country music.

still holds title--#1

Ive always loved this song and never understood why it wasn't a radio hit. Patty has a beautiful, unique voice.

This was always, for me, the most memorable of Patty's songs and my favorite of her videos.

Not a big hit, but a really Great song.
If you don't like this, then your a big time idiot.

Wouldn't you love to be sitting around with a guitar player and Patty and just listen to them jam?! Perfection.

Patty hit #20 in Billboard, 12-15-90. God bless ya, Miss Patty!

another Lucinda Williams classic song! Thank you Patty

Beautiful singer and hot to boot. Too bad there aren't more like her.

Dwight Yoakam and Patty Loveless were chiefly responsible for getting me into country music in the mid-80's. They were born 10 weeks apart in the same town, Pikeville, KY. They really must have something in the water!

Love this song !

Beaumont Texas...Oh yea!!!

Great song :D

Just hearing this song for the first time. Patty Loveless has easily become my favorite country singer. Every song I hear by her I love.

Great line in this song: "Well the music's playin fast and they just met, he presses up against her and his shirt's all soaked with sweat." A very talented performer who didn't seem to get the recognition she deserved.

Greatest female singer of all time--all time!

wow she is hot
