Patrick Simmons

Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun camenight had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm

South City midnight lady
I m much obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things I do
But the smile that I sent out returned with you

When day has left the night behind
And shadows roll across my mind
I sometimes find myself alone out walkin the street
Yesand when I m feelin down and blue
Then all I do is think of you
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away

South City midnight lady
I m much obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things I do
But the smile that I sent out returned with you
