Did you hear about the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
Did you hear about the midnight rambler
The one that shut the kitchen door
He don't give you a hoot of warning
Wrapped up in a black cat cloak
He don't go in the light of the morning
He split the time the cock'rel crows
Talkin'
about the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
Talkin' about the midnight gambler
Did you see him jump the garden wall
Sighin' down the wind so sadly
Listen and you'll hear him moan
Well, talkin' about the midnight gambler
Everybody got to go
Did
you hear about the midnight rambler
Well, honey, it's no rock 'n' roll
show
Well, I'm talkin' about the midnight
gambler
Yeah, the one you never seen before
Oh
don't do that, oh don't do that, oh don't do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
(repeat)
Oh don't do that, oh don't do that
(repeat)
Well
you heard about the Boston...
It's not one of those
Well, talkin' 'bout the midnight...sh...
The one that closed the bedroom door
I'm called the hit-and-run raper in
anger
The knife-sharpened tippie-toe...
Or just the shoot 'em dead, brainbell
jangler
You know, the one you never seen before
So
if you ever meet the midnight rambler
Coming down your marble hall
Well he's pouncing like proud black
panther
Well, you can say I, I told you so!
Well, don't you listen for the midnight
rambler
Play it easy, as you go
I'm gonna smash down all your plate
glass windows
Put a fist, put a fist through your
steel-plated door!
Did
you hear about the midnight rambler
He'll leave his footprints up and
down your hall
And did you hear about the midnight
gambler
And did you see me make my midnight
call
And
if you ever catch the midnight rambler
I'll steal your mistress from under
your nose
I'll go easy with your cold fanged
anger
I'll stick my knife right down your
throat, baby
And it hurts!
