Midnight in Montgomery
Silver Eagle, lonely road
I was on my way to Mobile
For a big New Year's Eve show
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
Then a drunk man in a cowboy hat
Took me by surprise
Wearin' 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?

'Cause it's midnight in Montgomery
Just hear that whippoorwill
See the stars light up the purple sky
Feel that lonesome chill
'Cause when the wind is right
You'll hear his song
Smell whiskey in the air
Midnight in Montgomery
He's always singin' there

Well, I climbed back on that Eagle
Took one last look around
Red tail lights, shadow moves slowly 'cross the ground
And off somewhere a midnight train is slowly passin' by
I can hear that whistle moanin'
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
'Cause when the wind is right
You'll hear his song
Smell whiskey in the air
Midnight in Montgomery
He's always singin' there

He's always singin' there
Well, Hank's always singin' there
