Standard (EADGBE)

Up all night I could not sleep

The whiskey that I drank was cheap

With shakin' hands I wait and I lit up my last cigarette

Well the sun came the night had fled

And sleepy-eyed I reached my bed

I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm

Chorus

South city midnight lady

I'm much obliged to you

You sure have saved this man who's soul was in need

I thought there was no reason

For all these things I do

But the smile that I said I've returned I'm with you

When day has left the night behind

And shadows roll across my mind

I sometimes find myself alone and out walking the street

Yes and when I'm feelin' down and blue

Then all I do is think of you

And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
