Midnight Fool Lyrics by Colin McCarthy

2024

Gotta be more to the day to day
Than workin like hell for an honest pay
And waiting on a woman, come and save your soul
Gotta be more than an Eight to Four (8-4)
With the boss man waiting at the door
Just taking pride in watching hearts grow cold
Never understood for the life of me
Stacking up checks til the day you’re free
And waiting on a pension to say “its time to roll”
But the highways got me nowhere fast
Spending my money on the cheapest gas
And finding ways to justify the tolls
If ya wanna ride, ya gotta pay the toll!
It's got me thinking I'm the only one that’s in my way
And all I have is all I need to stay
Gonna cherish yеsterday, dream tomorrow, and live today
My old man and his old man
Thеy broke their backs so I could make a stand
And I’ll be damned if I'm the first to fold
But here I am a “Midnight Fool”
Always been a sucker for a vice or two
The first to tell ya, I can’t be told
The first to say, “ I can’t be told” (Na!)
It's got me thinking I'm the only one that’s in my way
And all I have is all I need to stay
Gonna cherish yesterday, dream tomorrow, and live today
It's got me thinking I'm the only one that’s in my way
And all I have is all I need to stay
Gonna cherish yesterday, dream tomorrow, and live today
It's got me thinking I'm the only one that’s in my way
And all I have is all I need to stay
Gonna cherish yesterday, dream tomorrow, and live today
Cherish yesterday, dream tomorrow, and live today
