Take my eyes that I could be so blind I could not see it was there, waiting Lost and found, the second time around Was good for me, now I see, would not waste a moment, oh no
Did my time, took a look around you Off the track them roots grow strong Man in the radio plays the tune Seed of the midnight flower bloom See them come to the midnight show Who's gonna be the one to go? Who's gonna be that one to lead? Please
Chorus
Oh well you work all day, up to the night And find your way home, ooh Midnight marauders you would never walk alone Oh brother time has come for us to leave The problems of the day and I would not waste a moment, no way No way
Went to the corner store to buy me Cigarettes and some papers When the girl at the counter caught my eye Asked me to meet her later, she said Down by the door at the back of the store There's a place where you can wait Oh, placing your order with me now
Ringing on my bell Knocking on my door She be ringing on my bell Knocking on my door She be ringing on my bell Knocking on my door etc
Knock 3 times so I know it's you Knock 2 times so I know it's you Please, Please Knock 1 time so I know it's you Knock 2 times so I know it's you Please Knock 4 times so I know it's you Knock 2 times so I know it's you Please Knock on the once so I know it's you Knock on the two so I know it's you Please
We are the midnight marauders, oh We are the midnight marauders, yeah We be the midnight marauders, oh We are the midnight marauders, yeah We are the midnight marauders
