Midnight Blue
(专辑: Takin' It Easy - 1978)
Ain't no sorrow for that woman. Ain't no pity for this fool. She wrote her name upon my window, signed it "Gone, with love, Midnight Blue." There's a
story going 'round here, 'bout a
woman dressed in black. Spending money and drinking whiskey, driving 'round in my big black Cadillac. There's a
shanty down by the
river. They say she went there to meet a
friend. They found his body beneath the
willows. She signed it "Gone, with love, Midnight Blue." There's a
jailhouse down in this county, with its windows oh so high. They're gonna hang me come Monday morning, write my soul, Midnight Blue, across the
sky. Now if I
ever get to heaven, I'll look St. Peter in the
eye. And say don't you ever let that woman ever appear. She's Satan's daughter, in shades of midnight blue.
