Midnight In Montgomery — текст песни (Alan Jackson)

Midnight in Montgomery, silver eagle, lonely road
I was on my way to Mobile for a big New Years Eve show
I stopped for just a minute to see a friend outside of town
Put my collar up, found his name, and felt the wind die down

Then a drunken man in a cowboy suit took me by surprise
Waering shiny boots, a Nudi 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
Was he ever really there

`Cause it`s midnight in Montgomery
Just hear that whippoorwill
See the stars light up the purple sky
Feel that lonesome chill
When the wind it`s right, you`ll hear his songs
Smell whiskey in the air
Midnight in Montgomery
He`s always singing there

I climbed back on my eagle, took one last look around
Through red tail lights a shadow moved slow across the ground
Off somewhere a midnight train is slowly passing by
I could hear that whistle moaning
I`m so lonesome I could cry

`Cause it`s midnight in Montgomery
Just hear that whippoorwill
See the stars light up the purple sky
Feel that lonesome chill
When the wind it`s right, you`ll hear his songs
Smell whiskey in the air
Midnight in Montgomery
He`s always singing there
He`s always singing there
Hank`s always singing there
