Karaoké Midnight in Montgomery Alan Jackson

Midnight in Montgomery silver eagle lonely road

I was on my way to Mobile for a big new year's 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 drunk man in a cowboy hat took me by surprise

Wearing shiny boots a Nudie 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?

'Cos it's midnight in Montgomery

Just hear that whippoorwill

See the stars light up the purple sky

Feel that lonesome chill

'Cos when the wind is right you'll hear a song smell whiskey in the air

Midnight in Montgomery

He's always singing there

Well I climbed back on that eagle took one last look around

The red taillights the shadow moved slow across the ground

And off somewhere a midnight train is slowly passing by

I could hear that whistle moaning

I'm so lonesome I could cry

'Cos it's midnight in Montgomery

Just hear that whippoorwill

See the stars light up the purple sky

Feel that lonesome chill

'Cos when the wind is right you'll hear a song smell whiskey in the air

Midnight in Montgomery

He's always singing there

He's always singing there

Hank's always singing there
