Long train rumbles low in the distance hear it blow
Don't engineers know I miss you
And they're reminding me how lonely nights can be
When it's midnight me and the blues

Car's going down the street no traffic jams to meet
This time of night they drive right through
And they all go right by and they don't know I cry
When it's midnight me and the blues

Midnight's the loneliest time in the world
Me I'm the loneliest guy with no girl
These blues began when it ended with you
Now it's midnight me and the blues

[ guitar + steel ]
Jet plane on overhead rumbles my lonely bed
Crumbles my lovely dreams of you
They don't care that you're gone or if midnight lasts till dawn
When it's midnight me and the blues

Midnight's the loneliest time in the world...
Midnight me and the blues
