Long About Midnight Songtext
von The Mills Brothers

If you don′t know just what to really do
Take a walk along the avenue
You'll hear the sound come floatin′ through
'Long about midnight ('Long about midnight)
They close the windows and they dim the lights
And how they do it, it′s the strangest sight
And everything′s goin' right
′Long about midnight ('Long about midnight)
Piano′s tickin' and couples sway
And draggin′ their clothes as they find


They don't care how they live by day
Why not leave troubles behind
They're not pretending like the hoi polloi
They really mean it, it′s the real McCoy
They try to lose a thousand pounds of joy
′Long about midnight ('Long about midnight)
Hoi loid a loi, hoi loid a loi
Hoi loid a loi, loid a loi da
Hoi loid a loi, hoi loid a loi
Hoi loid a loi, ′long about midnight
