Doobie Brothers - South City Midnight Lady

South City Midnight Lady

Patrick simmons
Up all night i could not sleep
The whiskey that i drank was cheap
With shakin hands i went and i lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed i reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
South city midnight lady
Immuch obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things i do
But the smile that sent out returned with you
When day has left the night behind
And shadows roll across my mind
I sometimes find myself alone out walkin the street
Yes, and when imfeelin down and blue
Then all i do is think of you
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
South city midnight lady
Immuch obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things i do
But the smile that sent out returned with you
