Midnight Rambler Live 1971 by The Rolling Stones Lyrics
[Harmonica Intro]
[Verse 1]
Did you hear about the midnight rambler
Everybody got to go
Did you hear about the midnight rambler
The one that shut the kitchen door
He don't give a hoot of warning
Wrapped up in a black cat cloak
He don't go in the light of the morning
He split the time the cock'rel crows
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 2]
Talkin' about the midnight gambler
The one you never seen before
Talkin' about the midnight gambler
Everybody got to go
Did you see him jump the garden wall
Sighin' down the wind so sad
Listen and you'll hear him moan
Talkin' about the midnight gambler
Everybody got to go
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Audience Applause]
[Instrumental Transition]
[Bridge]
Go down on the baby
Go down on the baby
Well you heard about the Boston
Honey, it's not one of those
Well I'm talkin' about the midnight
Do you see me shut the bedroom door
I'm called a hit n' run reaper
Or just a knife sharpin' tippy-toe
Just shoot 'em dead, brain dead
Chain letting down
Everybody gots to go
Yeah now listen for the midnight rambler
[?]
Yeah he's bouncing like [?] like a panther
Yessir, I told you so
Yessir, if you miss him, the midnight rambler
[?]
[?]
[?] shut the kitchen door
Listen
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
[Audience Applause]
[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Yessir!

Wrapped up in a black cat cloak

He split the time the cock'rel crows
