Soon After Midnight

I'm searching for phrases

To sing your praises

I need to tell someone

It's soon after midnight

And my day has just begun

A gal named Honey

Took my money

She was passing by

It's soon after midnight

And the moon is in my eye

My heart is cheerful

It's never fearful

I've been down on the killing floors

I'm in no great hurry

I'm not afraid of your fury

I've faced stronger walls than yours

Charlotte's a harlot

Dresses in scarlet

Mary dresses in green

It's soon after midnight

And I've got a date with the fairy queen

They chirp and they chatter

What does it matter?

They lie and dine in their blood

Two-timing Slim

Who's every heard of him?

I'll drag his corpse through the mud

It's now or never

More than ever

When I met you I didn't think you would do

It's soon after midnight

And I don't want nobody but you
