[Verse 1]
It's a hot night, the natives are restless
We're sweating by the light of the moon
There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go
That could knock a witch off her broom
We slither on in and shed our skin
Make our way into the bump and the grind
So I'm passing by, she gives me the eye
So I stop to give her a light

Na, na, na, na, na-na na-na-na, na-na-na ALRIGHT!

[Chorus]
One wild night (blinded by the moonlight)
One wild night (24 hours of midnight)
One wild night (I stepped into the Twilight Zone
And she left my heart with vertigo)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night

[Verse 2]
Having as much fun as you can in your clothes
Margarita had me feeling alright
It just might be that I found religion
I've been on my knees for half of the night
Then I'm rolling the bones with Jimmy 'no dice'
Gonna take him for a couple weeks' pay
Man, if you lose this roll I take your girlfriend home
So I stopped
(Spoken): But you're not going to believe who comes walking out

[Chorus]
One wild night (blinded by the moonlight)
One wild night (24 hours of midnight)
One wild night (I stepped into the Twilight Zone
And she left my heart with vertigo)
One wild night (hey, c'est la vie)
One wild night (welcome to the party)
One wild night (life is for the living so
You gotta live it up, come on let's go)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night

Na, na, na, na, na-na na-na-na
Na, na, na, na, na-na na-na-na
Na, na, na, na, na-na na-na-na
Na, na OH!

[Chorus]
One wild night (blinded by the moonlight)
One wild night (24 hours of midnight)
One wild night (I stepped into the Twilight Zone
And she left my heart with vertigo)
One wild night (hey, c'est la vie)
One wild night (welcome to the party)
One wild night (life is for the living so
You gotta live it up, come on let's go)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... (One wild night)
Oh... (One wild night)

[Chorus]
One wild night (blinded by the moonlight)
One wild night (24 hours of midnight)
One wild night (I stepped into the Twilight Zone)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night

(Spoken)
Ladies and Gentlemen, I want to talk to you about James. Brown
(Sambora): James Brown?!
(Jon): Yeah, now if James were here, it'd be a hit!
