Born Judy Kay Newton, February 18, 1952, in Lakehurst, New Jersey, Juice Newton was raised in Virginia, later relocating to California.

Her best-known songs were "Angel of the Morning", "Queen of Hearts" (1981), and "Love's Been a Little Bit Hard on Me" (1982).

The album "Can't Wait All Night" (which included the single of the same name) was released in 1984, and was produced by Richard Landis.

Originally Adams and I called the song "Send A Little Lovin'", but Landis suggested we change the title to "Can't Wait All Night", a definite improvement.

I was really pleased with the production and performance on this track. Bryan and I always put a lot of thought into the arrangement and instrumentation. Unlike some of the producers we dealt with over the years, you could tell that Landis had actually listened to our demo!
Lyrics: I've got a secret in my heart
I've been holdin' for some time
But if I let the fire start
Would it be outta line

I guess there's nothin' left to say
I just wanna make you mine
Don't let a good thing get away
Come on and make up your mind
Ya - give me a sign baby

Can't wait all night
Can't wait all day
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

Now the feelin's right
I just wanna say
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

I'm double parked outside your heart
While I wait for you to make a move
If nothin's keepin' us apart
We got nothin' to lose

Lovers come and lovers go
You gotta know when it's for real
Why would you wanna be alone
When you could be with me
Ya - you coulda been with me

Can't wait all night
Can't wait all day
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

Now the feelin's right
I just wanna say
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

I'm sittin' on TNT
Just wishin' you could be with me
A little bit of love would go a long, long way

I'm walkin' on lands mine
I'm just wishin' I could make you mine
There's nothin' left for me but anticipation

Can't wait all night
Can't wait all day
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

Now the feelin's right
I just wanna say
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

Can't wait all night
Can't wait all day
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way

Now the feelin's right
I just wanna say
When you gonna send a little lovin' my way
