Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
A talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
I don't give you a hoot of a warning
Ah, listen and you'll hear him moan
I don't want the light of the morning
I go the time the cockerel crows
A talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler
The one you never seen before
A talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler
A' did you see me shut the garden door?
Sighin' down the wind so sadly
Ah, listen and you'll hear him moan
A' talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
A talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler?
Well, honey, it's no rock 'n roll show
I'm talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
[Verse 2]
C'mon, c'mon
[Verse 3]
Yeah, we're gonna shake it up
You got to shake it up
You got to
Will someone help me, got to shake it up
[Verse 4]
Don't do that
And don't do that
And don't do that
And don't do that
And don't do that
And don't do that
Don't do it
Shake it up
[Bridge]
Yeah, right
Mmhmm, yeah
And oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
And oh yeah (Oh yeah)
And everybody say, oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Now everybody say, ooow! (Ooow!)
Now everybody say, ooow! (Ooow!)
Everybody in the top say, ooow! (Ooow!)
Ooow!
Ooow!
Ooow!
Ooow!
Ooow!
[Verse 5]
Well I'ma talkin 'bout the Boston
Well now clearly, It's not one of those
'N' I'm just talkin' 'bout the midnight
And well, one you've never seen before
It's called the hit-and-run raper in anger
Or it's just the knife-sharpened tippie-toes
Or just the shoot 'em dead, call him the brain bell jangler
Everybody got to go
[Verse 6]
If you listen for the midnight rambler
It is hiding down your marble hall
Well he's pouncing round like-, proud like a panther
Well, you can say, I told you, told you so
So if you listen for the midnight rambler
Play it easy, easy as you go
He gon' smash down all your flash glass windows
Put a fist through your steel-plated door
[Chorus]
Everybody got to go
A talkin' 'bout the midnight rambler
And did you see me 'bout to end my call?
So if you ever see the midnight rambler
Steal your mistress from under your nose
Go easy with your cold fanged anger
Stick my knife right down your throat
Thank you!
