You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason for all these things I do
I thought there was no reason for all these things I do
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason for all these things I do
I saw you sleepy dreamin' there, all covered and warm
South city midnight lady, I'm much obliged indeed
Yes, and when I'm feelin' down and blue then all I do is think of you
When day has left the night behind and shadows roll across my mind
I sometimes find myself alone out, walkin' the streets
South city midnight lady, I'm much obliged indeed
Well, the sun came, night had fled, and sleepy-eyed, I reached my bed
But the smile that I sent out, returned with you
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
But the smile that I sent out, returned with you
South city midnight lady, I'm much obliged indeed
