Goodneighbor After Midnight

Lyrics transcript

Reviewed lyrics for Goodneighbor After Midnight.

When the clock strikes twelve in Good Neighbor And

the market lights burn low

That's when the real ones start arriving And the

decent ones start to go You can hear the

glasses clinking Hear the jukebox playing low There's a

woman singing somewhere And nobody's in a hurry to

go Good neighbor after midnight

That's when the truth comes out Ain't nobody here

pretending ain't nobody knows what you're about good never

after midnight

come on in and take a seat

you can leave your name outside the door honey

everybody here knows everybody's beat

Hancock sitting at the bar tonight

Feather in his hat

Laughing like the world ain't ended Like he don't

remember that

Magnolia's got the microphone phone and every eyes on

the stage she sings about a better world like

she remembers a better age

good never after midnight

that's when the lonely come around

some are looking for salvation some are just looking

to drown

good neighbor after midnight ain't no judgment in this

room

Just another glass of whiskey And another song before

the moon

guitar solo

guitar solo

There's a mercenary in the corner with a rifle

by its chair.

There's a ghoul beside the jukebox who don't have

a care.

There's a drifter at the doorway with a story

he won't tell.

And a girl beside the bar stool who knows

him all too well

you can buy yourself a memory

you can sell yourself a lie

you can find yourself a little love or find

a reason not to die

And when the morning starts to find us Nobody

talks about the night

We just sweep away the glasses Turn the jukebox

down real low And wait for Friday night

Good neighbor after midnight Midnight, where the lost come

home to stay, where the sinners and the saints

can't tell each other from a mile away.

Good neighbor after midnight

Baby, that's where I belong So pour yourself another

whiskey And let me sing you one more song

Good neighbor After midnight At midnight, that's when good

neighbor feels most like home.©
