Middle of the Night - Charlie Robison

Well theres a woman in the corner sittin all alone

The barkeep’s talkin on the bar payphone

Theres a couple on the dance floor, trippin on the line

Well tell me why i can’t find the door

But in the middle of the night, gonna be alright

The last call still ain’t near

But in the middle of the night, gonna see the light

Would wanna be any place but here

Blue ball betty and chainsaw bill

A june bug crawlin on the window sill

Playboy pictures on the bathroom wall

Can you tell me why i can’t make sense of it all

In the middle of the night, gonna be alright

The last call still ain’t near

But in the middle of the night, gonna see the light

Would wanna be any place but here

I fell in love about fifteen times

Got a car full of dents, face full of lines

Number sixteen just walked in

Better sit up straight, my momma’d be proud

In the middle of the night, gonna be alright

The last call still ain’t near

But in the middle of the night, gonna see the light

Would wanna be any place but here
