I Know A Place

Petula Clark

(Words and Music by Tony Hatch)

Every day when the work is behind you

And the shop and the store put the lock on the door

Just get away where your worries won't find you

If you like, well I'll tell you more

Don't let the day get the better of you

When the evening comes there's so much to do

You better put on your best and wear a smile

Just come along with me awhile, cuz I tell you

I know a place where the music is fine

And the lights are always low

I know a place where we can go

At the door there's a man who will greet you

Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs

Soon I'm sure you'll be tappin' your feet

Because the beat is the greatest there

All around there are girls and boys

It's a swingin' place, a cellar full of noise

It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow

You gotta come along right now cuz I tell you

I know a place where the music is fine

And the lights are always low

I know a place where we can go

Instrumental interlude, chiefly brass

Well, all around there are girls and boys

It's a swingin' place, a cellar full of noise

It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow

You gotta come along right now cuz I tell you

I know a place where the music is fine

And the lights are always low

I know a place where we can go

FADE

I know a place where we can go

I know a place where the lights are low
