Midnight Blues

[Verse 1]
Daddy, daddy, please come back to me
Daddy, daddy, please come back to me
Your mama's lonesome as she can be

[Verse 2]
You left at midnight, clock was striking twelve
Papa, you left me at midnight when that clock was strikin' twelve
To face this cruel world all by myself

[Chorus]
Woke up at midnight sad and blue
Missed my daddy from my side
Left alone to bemoan my fate
That's why I'm sighin', cryin', I just can't refuse
I feel so troubled, heartbroken too
Woe and misery I can't hide
At twelve o' clock, I unlock my hate
I get the meanest kind of lonesome midnight blues

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I feel so troubled, heartbroken too
Woe and misery I can't hide
At twelve o'clock, I unlock my hate
I get the meanest kind of lonesome midnight blues
Those lonesome midnight blues
