Lyrics:

(Johnny "Guitar" Watson)

It is three hours past midnight
And my baby's nowhere around
Yes three hours past midnight
And my baby's nowhere around

Well, I listen so hard to hear her footsteps
I ain't even heard a sound
Well, I toss and tumble on my pillow
But I just can't close my eyes

Oh, I toss and tumble on my pillow
But I just can't close my eyes
If my baby don't come back pretty soon
Yes, I just can't be satisfied now

Look out
Look out
Keep right on

Well, I tried so hard to take
But my baby's drivin' me insane
Well, I tried so hard to take
Oh yeah

But my baby's drivin' me insane
Well if she's don't come back pretty soon
Yeah, gonna catch that midnight train
Yeah
