Story behind the song
Not the most cheerful lyrics in the world -- hey it's a blues song. Backing track and hot lead guitar by "Dad", a mysterious entity from East Tennessee and only known through the internet. I do nothing on this one! I tried to sing it, but my voice was too thin. Janet jumped in to handle the vocals. (Music: "Dad"/Emmrich, Lyrics: Emmrich) (c) Kevin Emmrich 2007
Lyrics
Midnight Blues
(Lyrics by Kevin Emmrich)
It’s midnight somewhere
Deep in my soul I feel someone’s alone
Don’t know how to help them
Don’t know if I should dare
It’s a hard, hard truth
It’s just the Midnight Blues
Woke up this mornin’ after a restless night
So much hurting, so much pain
Sometimes it feels like nothing’s right
Clouds rolling in, on the horizon - rain
It’s a hard, hard truth
It’s just the Midnight Blues
Oh Lord, send some comfort
Oh Lord, send some comfort down to me
It’s dark and it’s dreary,
No salvation or hope I see
It’s a hard, hard truth
It’s just the Midnight Blues
(guitar takes the 1st line here)
I’m in pain all alone
Tough to go on
Some mysteries stay unknown
It’s a hard, hard truth
It’s just the Midnight Blues
