Rich, Charlie - Midnight Blues Lyrics






Midnite, you know you're doing me wrong
Midnite, doing me wrong
Keeping me up all night long
All night, all night long
Everytime I feel a little bit free
I hear those blues, midnite blues
Commence to calling me

Midnite, why don't you leave me alone
Leave me, leave me alone
I'm trying my best to make a happy home
Happy, happy home
Everytime I feel a little bit free
I hear those blues, midnite blues
Commence to calling me

I just can't help to feel a little bit ashamed
Everytime I hear you call my name
I'm blaming you for all the bad things I've done
Blame you for what I've done
Still I will admit that every once in a while it was fun

Yeah but midnite, don't keep me running around
Don't keep running around
I made up my mind, I'm gonna settle down
Ah ha, settle down
Everytime I feel a little bit free
I hear those blues, midnite blues
Blues, midnite blues
I hear those blues, midnite blues
Commence to calling me
That blues is a calling me
Midnite blues is a calling me
...

    If you listen to this with headphones, you can hear him from 2:02 to 2:10 struggling with his breath. He's singing so far behind the beat and with so much restraint and the bass and drummer is such motherfuckers that it's eating him alive.
