'Long About Midnight Lyrics
'Long About Midnight - Mildred Bailey
If you don't know just really what to do
Take a walk along the avenue
You'll hear the sounds come a-floating through
Along about midnight
Close the windows and they dim the light
Keep their doings from a stranger's sight
And everything is going right
Long about midnight
And tinkle couples sway
Taking the pleasures they find
They don't care how they live by day
They just leave the worry behind
They're not pretending it's the hoy-falloy
They really mean it it's the real McCoy
They turn a booze of ounce a pound of joy
Long about midnight
Ah-en Ah-en
If you don't know just really what to do
Take a walk along the avenue
You'll hear the sounds come a-floating through
Along about midnight
Close the windows and they dim the light
Keep their doings from a stranger's sight
Then everything is going right
Long about midnight
Glasses tinkle couples sway
Taking the pleasures they find
They don't care how they live by day
They just leave the worries behind
They're not pretending it's the hoy-falloy
They really mean it it's the real McCoy
They turn a booze of ounce a pound of joy
Long about midnight
Long about midnight
