I been good to my baby
Ain't no doubt about that
When I come home and find him gone
I ain't gonna let him come back
Cause I'm one more fool
And I got the midnight blues
Oh midnight blues
It's late night in the city
He's out of the town
I got a powerful hurt and a powerful thirst
And a long night coming down
And I'm a lonely fool
And I got the midnight blues
Midnight blues
I went down to the HooDoo woman
I said "I need to hear the truth"
She said "Hey, baby girl, don't you sweat yourself
He's no good for you"
We all get the midnight blues
Midnight blues
I bought this house we been living in
You know that fo sho
If you come home, I may not be alone
And your key won't fit my do'
Now who's the fool?
You got the midnight blues
Oh midnight blues
