Encore un blues où la voix brûlante de Memphis Slim balance entre désespoir et flegme car les nanas sont dures avec le pauvre gars qui ne cherche qu'un abri pour la nuit, qui ne demande qu'à aimer, histoire d'y rester un peu plus, de profiter, quoi …
Between midnight and dawn, baby
A many of us have to part
C'est bien cruel d'être viré à l'aube quand le soleil est déjà haut mais c'est la règle du jeu. Il reste à le prendre avec le sourire.
But that's all right
Well I'll take life with a smile

Paroles complètes
Between midnight and dawn, baby
A many of us have to part.
Between midnight and dawn
Lord a many of us have to part.
Well, I can't forget you, baby
Oh, well well, remember you walked in my heart.
Now let us say "Good Night"
And don't fill our hearts with pain.
Well, well and may God bless us
And send us down a golden chain.
Baby, you put me out
When the sun was shining bright.
Baby you put me out
Lord, when the sun was shining bright.
Well, when I was down and out
You wouldn't let me spend the night.
But, that's all right
Lord, I'll take life with a smile.
For now, I'm gettin' kinda used to it
Oo, well, well, I feel just as a motherless child.
