I go out walkin after midnight
Out in the starlight Just like we used to do Im always walking after midnight Searching for you I walk for miles along the highway Well thats just my way Of sayin I love you I'm always walkin after midnight Searchin for you I stop to see a weeping willow Cryin on his pillow Maybe hes cryin for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walkin after midnight Out in the moonlight Just a-hopin you may be Somewhere a-walkin after midnight Searching for me *Repeat last two verses* I go out walkin after midnight Searchin for you |

I seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel And it was there beneath a streetlamp Where I met a southern belle Well she took me to the river Where she cast her spell And it was neath that Memphis moonlight She sang this song so well (chorus) If youll be my Dixie chicken Ill be your Tennesee lamb And we can walk together Down in Dixie land Down in Dixie land We hit all the hotspots My money flowed like wine Till the lowdown southern whiskey Began to fog my mind Well I dont remember church bells Or the money I put down On the white picket fence and boardwalk At the house on the edge of town Now but boy do I remember The strain of her refrain And the nights we spent together And the way she called my name (chorus) Its been a year since she ran away Guess that guitar player sure could play She always liked to sing along He was always handy with a song Then one night in the lobby Of the Commodore Hotel I by chance met a bartender Who said he knew her well And as he handed me a drink He bagan to hum a song And all the boys there at the bar Began to sing along (chorus twice) |

I burned my hand, and I cut my face
Heaven knows how long it's been Since I've felt so out of place Wonderin if I'll fit in Debbie and Charlie said they'd be here by nine And Deb said she might bring a friend Just my luck, they're right on time So here I go again (Chorus) I'm gonna smile my best smile And I'm gonna laugh like it's goin out of style Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see That learning to live again is killin me Little cafe, table for four But there's just conversation for three I like the way she let me get the door I wonder what she thinks of me Debbie just whispered you're doin fine I wish that I felt the same She's asked me to dance, now her hand's in mine Oh my God, I've forgotten her name Repeat chorus Now here we are, beneath her porch light And I say what a great time it's been A kiss on the cheek, a whispered good night And I say can I see you again And she just smiles her best smile And she laughs like it's goin out of style Looks into my eyes and says we'll see Oh this learnin to live again is killin me God this learnin to live again is killin me |

(Chorus)
She wants something with a ring to it Like a church bell makes Like a pretty white gown to wear And some vows to take She want's something with a ring to it I think I understand Gonna' have to put a ring on her finger If I'm gonna' be her man My baby's playin' hard to please And I think I figured out What it is she want's from me Cause when I hold her close When we go out at night I can hardly see the moonlight From the diamonds in her eyes (Repeat Chorus) My baby did but now she don't And if I don't say I do It's a safe bet that she won't Love me like she used to When our love began Now the only way to change her tune Is with a wedding band (Repeat Chorus) |

There was a bad boy in the school yard
Waited on you every day Seemed like every time you turned around Well he was standing in your way Well he broke your glasses The girls all laughed As he pushed to the floor Until you stood up one day knowin' You couldn't stand it anymore And your gentle hand was finally clenched in rage And you were face to face Chorus: Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin' Eye to eye finally has arrived And bad as it was, well now brother wasn't it better Dealing with him face to face Yor date showed up with flowers You thought your prayers had come But with every passing hour You watched it come undone Then the night exploded and you begged him no But he forever changed your life And now he waits a judge and jury Thinkin' you'll break down inside And with a finger you can put his fists away And your face to face Chorus: Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin' Eye to eye finally has arrived And bad as it was, well now sister wasn't it better Dealing with him face to face 'Cause it'll never go away Until the fear that you've are runnin' from is finally embraced Drivin' by the graveyard On a wicked winters eve And your wonderin' why a man of faith Is whistlin' nervously Then you stop the car And you hold your heart 'Cause you finally realise Hell, the devil ain't in the darkness He's a'rattlin' 'round inside And with folded hands you truely start to pray 'Cause your face to face Chorus: Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin' Eye to eye finally has arrived But bad as it was, well now brother wasn't it better Dealing with him face to face 'Cause it'll never go away Until the fear that you've been runnin' from is finally embraced Face to face |
