Lyrics
You know when the odds are stacked against you
And you're about to lose it all
You think you're a winner
But you've had your doubts
Now, you've got the chance to play it out
You know what the game's all about
And you're runnin' hot
Though, you're on the spot
You know you've gotta set up your heart
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
You know when the feelin' is right (long shot)
Comin' over you like a blindin' light
In the heat of the night
You know there's nothin' else you can do
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
You know when the feelin' is right (long shot, long shot)
And though it's been said that life's a gamble
And only the winners take it all
You know you hold your fate here in your hand
So you better take it while you can
If you're livin' life at your command
Give it all you got
And you got a lot
Even if you're ready or not
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
You know when the feelin' is right (long shot)
Comin' over you like a blindin' light
In the heat of the night
You know there's nothin' else you can do
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
You know when the feelin' is right (long shot)
Comin' over you like a blindin' light
In the heat of the night
You know there's nothin' else you can do
You gotta take the long shot (long shot)
Long shot, long shot
Comin' over you like a blindin' light
In the heat of the night
You know there's nothin' else you can do
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot, long shot)
You know there's nothin' else you can do
You gotta take the long shot (long shot, long shot, long shot)
You know there's nothin' else you can do (oh)
Oh, yeah (long shot, long shot, long shot)
Like a blindin' light
In the heat of the night
You know there's nothin' else you can do
Got to take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
Got to take the long shot (long shot)
You know there's nothin' else you can do, yeah
Long shot (yeah), long shot, long shot, long short (ooh)
You've got to take the long shot (long shot, long shot)
