Where were you when the lights went out

Where were you when the lights went out
In New York City
Don’t you know that I was making love
(She was making love)
I remember on the 13th of July

New York had black-out for 25 hours or more
And nobody really knows the reason why
Ooh, somebody called it love down on the socket (The socket)
It was safe to say I went the door to lock it (To lock it)
So I took my lady by the hand
And led her to love me, love me, love me!
Where were you when the lights went out
In New York City (All over the town, yeah)
Where were you when the lights went out
In New York City
Don’t you know that I was making love
(She was making love)
Ooh, sweet making love
(She was making love)
Central Park was jammed after dark
Innocent girl from love above the
What the nation’s gonna grow in nine months or so Where we all a little bit baby-boom

But that was the night they call it love city (Love city)
So I took my lady by the hand
And led her to love me, love me, love me!
Where were you when the lights went out
In New York City (I wanna know, yeah)
Where were you when the lights went out
In New York City
Don’t you know that I was making love
(She was making love)
Ooh, sweet making love
