Midnight Rambler

The Rolling Stones


(Intro)

Did you hear about the Midnight Rambler?
Ev'rybody got to go
Did you hear about the Midnight Rambler,
The one that shut the kitchen door?
He don't give a hoot of warning,
Wrapped up in a black cat cloak
He don't go in the light of the morning,
He's split the time the cock'rel crows

Talkin' 'bout the Midnight Rambler,
The one you never seen before
Talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler,
Did you see him jump the garden wall?
Sighin' down the wind so softly,
Listen and you'll hear him moan

Talkin' 'bout the Midnight Rambler,
Ev'rybody got to go
Did you hear about the midnight gambler?
Well honey, it's no rock'n'roll show

Well I'm talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler,
The one you never seen before
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that

Did you hear about the Midnight Rambler?
He'll leave his footprints up and down your hall
Did you hear about the Midnight Rambler?
Did you see me make my midnight call?
And if you catch the Midnight Rambler,
I'll steal your mistress from under your nose
Well, go easy with your cold fandango,
I'll stick my knife right down your throat!
(Spoken) Baby, and it hurts!
