NIGHTTIME BLUES

Baby, Baby, Baby
I got them old Nighttime Blues
The same ones I always get
When I get started missin' you

It's been a long cold lonely night, Babe
That's why they call them the Nighttime Blues...

I'm ok in the daytime
When the sun is shinin' in the sky
But when the moon and stars come out
All I wanna do, Baby, is cry

It's been a long cold lonely night, Babe
That's why they call them the Nighttime Blues...

Baby, Baby, Baby
I got them old NightTime Blues
The same ones I always get
When I get started missin' you

It's been a long cold lonely night, Babe
That's why they call them the NightTime Blues

You've been gone oh so long now
It seems like my whole world's gone black
And there ain't no hope of daylight
'Till the day you say you're comin' back

It's been a long cold lonely night, Babe
That's why they call them the NightTime Blues

Baby, Baby, Baby
I got them old NightTime Blues
The same ones I always get
When I get started missin' you

It's been a long cold lonely night, Babe
That's why they call them the NightTime Blues
