Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you hear about the midnight rambler?
Everybody got to go
Uh, did you hear about the midnight rambler?
The one that shut the kitchen door
He don't give a hoot of a warning
Ah, wrapped up in a blackened cloak
It don't go in the light of the morning
It split the time the cockerel crow
[Verse 2]
A talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
Yeah, a talkin' about the midnight gambler
But did you see him jump the garden wall?
Sighin' down the wind so sadly
Ah, listen and you'll hear him moan, yeah well
Talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler
Everybody got to go
[Verse 3]
Ah, did you hear about the midnight rambler?
Well, honey, it's no rock 'n roll show
Well, I'm a talkin' 'bout the midnight gambler
Yeah, the one you never seen before
[Verse 4]
Don't do that
Don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Don't do that, don't do-don't do that
Don't do-don't do that
Don't do that, don't-don't, don't do that
Don't do (Don't you do that)
Don't you do that
Don't do that, don't do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
Don't you do that, don't you do that
Don't do that, don't do that (Don't do that)
Don't do that (Don't you do that)
Don't do that (Don't you do that)
Don't you (Don't you do that)
Don't you (Don't you do that)
Don't you do that, don't-don't you do that
Oh, don't do that (Don't you do that)
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Oh, don't do that
Don't do that, don't
Don't do that
[Verse 5]
Well you heard about the Boston
It's not one of those
Well, talkin' 'bout the midnight, ooh, shhh
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, brain bell jangler
You know, the one you never seen before
[Verse 6]
So if you ever meet the midnight rambler
A-coming down your marble hall
Well he's pouncing like a proud black panther
Well, you can say, I told you so
Well, don't you listen for the midnight rambler, oh yeah
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
[Verse 7]
A did you hear about the midnight rambler?
He'll leave his footprints up and down your hall
A 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
