the wicked witch of cincinnati pulled out her old broomstick
dusted off the spiders and cobwebs and used it
to fly on down to cleveland for the weekend

cause she thought it was time to do some freaking
and it'd been so long since she didn't feel bad
not spending all the time making people feel sad

no more and now she's made up her mind to
put on that old dress and get herself looking real
fine all up in the club drinking hennesey

oh my what a mess i must confess that
it's all right to let your hair down and let your heart out
and let the light in let the light in it's all right

to let the light in let the light in again
well the lion and the tin man showed up at the spot
when the wicked witch walked in and said show me what you got

well the lion ran for cover and the tin man didn't move
and the band started playing this groove
and the next thing you know there was magic in the air

no one saw it come, it wasn't too clear
and the tin man said i don't know how
to do this baby maybe you could show me how

she said it's all right to let your hair down, let your heart out
and let the light in let the light in it's all right
to let the light in let the light in again

and they danced in the darkness on the floor
the world kept spinning round like it's always done before
the people in the club said they don't make a pretty pair

the tin man and the witch, they didn't seem to care
'cause love don't give a damn about what other people say
it does what it wants it's always been that way

that's the way it was and the way it will be again
forever and ever and ever amen
let the light in, let the light in

let the light in, let the light in
let the light in, let the light in
let the light in, let the light in

let the light in, let the light in
