Midnight Till Dawn Lyrics - Kitty Wells

MIDNIGHT TILL DAWN 

(S.F. Tyson) 

'71 copyright control 

I work everyday in a trucker's cafe and at night I serve drinks in a bar 

I've nothing to say to the men who drop by so that none of them get very far 

You may think that it's money but that's not the reason that keeps me a laborin' on 

Cause I'm working from morning till midnight and I'm weaken from midnight till dawn 

For once I was happy and full of the future that only a young girl can plan 

A lifetime of love all wrapped up in a bundle and placed in the hands of the man 

But then he found another he told me he love her he jumped in his rig and was gone 

So I'm working from morning till midnight and I'm weaken from midnight till dawn 

Oh life isn't easy and I'm nearly crazy just tryin' to keep myself stay 

But how can I try when I know if I soak him I'd do it all over again 

So I give all my love to my sweet little baby as only a poor mother can 

And I'm working from morning till midnight and I'm weaken from midnight till dawn
