I Know a Place
Petula Clark Lyrics

Every day, when the work is behind you
After a hard day's work, when you're done with job-related worries

And the shop and the store put the lock on the door
When the markets and shops are closed and you're free from commercial thoughts

Just get away where your worries won't find you
Find a place away from troubles and leave them behind

If you like, well, I'll tell you more
If interested, I can show you a great place to escape

Don't let the day get the better of you
Don't be overwhelmed by the difficulties of the day

When the evening comes, there's so much to do
In the evenings, there are many activities to engage in

You better put on your best and wear a smile
Dress up your best and wear a smile to enjoy the evening

Just come along with me a while, 'cause I tell you
Join me and let me show you the perfect place for enjoyment

I know a place
I have found a great place to have fun

Where the music is fine and the lights are always low
Where you can hear good music in a dimly lit atmosphere

At the door, there's a man who will greet you
When you enter, a man will greet you at the door

Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs
Once inside, you descend some stairs to find tables and chairs

Soon, I'm sure, you'll be tappin' your feet
The music is so good that you'll start tapping your feet in joy

Because the beat is the greatest there
The rhythm of the music is exceptionally good

All around, there are girls and boys
A diverse crowd of young people is present everywhere

It's a swingin' place, a cellar full of noise
This high-energy nightclub is swarming with sound and life

It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow
This place has a unique ambiance unlike any other

You gotta come along right now 'cause I tell you
You must come with me immediately because I promise you a good time

I know a place
Once again, I'd like to tell you about a spectacular destination

Where the music is fine and the lights are always low
Where you can always find great music and soft lighting

I know a place where we can go
I know of a spot where we can have an excellent time

Well, all around, there are girls and boys
Once more, the nightclub is brimming with a fantastic crowd

It's a swingin' place, a cellar full of noise
The atmosphere continues to be lively and vibrant

It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow
This nightclub's character is one-of-a-kind and hard to pin down

You gotta come along right now 'cause I tell you
Once again, I urge you to join me to experience this great nightspot

I know a place
As before, I have a perfect location in mind

Where the music is fine and the lights are always low
This venue is renowned for its great tunes and ambient lighting

I know a place where we can go
One last time, I'm inviting you to come to this amazing spot with me.
