Píseň: Midnight In Montgomery

Interpret:
Alan Jackson
Album:
The Essential (2CD)
Midnight in Montgomery, silver eagle, lonely road
 I was on my way to mobile for a big New Years Eve show
 I stopped for just a minute to see a friend outside of town
 Put my collar up, I found his name and felt the wind die down
 And a drunken man in a cowboy suit took me by surprise
 Wearing shiny boots, a nude suit and haunting haunted eyes
 He said friend it’s good to see you, it’s nice to know you care
 Then the wind picked up and he was gone or was he ever really there


 It’s midnight in Montgomery
 Just hear that whippoorwill
 See the stars light up the purple sky
 Feel that lonesome chill
 When the wind its right you’ll hear his song
 Smell whiskey in the air
 Midnight in Montgomery
 He’s always singing there


 I climbed back on my eagle 
Took one last look around
 Through red taillights
 A shadow moved slow across the ground
 Off somewhere a midnight train is slowly passing by
 And I could hear that whistle moaning
 I’m so lonesome I could cry


 It’s midnight in Montgomery
 Just hear that whippoorwill
 See the stars light up the purple sky
 Feel that lonesome chill
 When the wind its right, you’ll hear his songs
 Smell whiskey in the air
 Midnight in Montgomery
 He’s always singing there
 He’s always singing there


 Hank’s always singing there
