When that midnight hour went chiming,

I was in my room alone

Yes, when that midnight hour went chiming,

I was in my room alone

Yes, and when i came home this evening,

I found my baby gone



Oh, i laid my head on my pillow,

I gazed up at the stars up above

Yes, i laid my head on my pillow,

Yes, lookin' up at the stars above

I tell you it's a miserable feeling,

Oh, when you lose the one you love



Oh, i get the blues at midnight,

Oh there's one thing i can't describe

Oh, i get the blues at midnight,

Oh there's one thing i can't describe

Yes, and when you look at your baby's picture

Oh, the tears will come from your eyes
