| [00:22.01] |
Here's to you, you solitary sleeper |
| [00:28.03] |
As you face another long and lonely night |
| [00:33.39] |
Put the tom cat out in the yard |
| [00:37.69] |
And turn out the light |
| [00:41.27] |
Switch off |
| [00:44.00] |
Rest your head, and close your weary peepers |
| [00:49.21] |
As you try and keep those memories at bay |
| [00:54.63] |
And from now on start trying |
| [00:58.20] |
Not to toss your sleepy time away |
| [01:04.08] |
'Cause weary eyes and weary shoulders |
| [01:09.46] |
Won't bring her back to you |
| [01:14.97] |
You used to be a man of color |
| [01:20.53] |
And now you're midnight blue |
| [01:25.78] |
Your weary eyes and weary shoulders |
| [01:31.20] |
Won't bring her back, it's true, yes it's true |
| [01:35.13] |
You used to be a man of color once |
| [01:42.23] |
But now you're midnight blue |
| [02:22.68] |
Rest your head, and close your weary peepers |
| [02:28.42] |
As you try and keep those memories at bay |
| [02:33.23] |
And from now on start trying |
| [02:36.89] |
Not to toss your sleepy time away |
| [02:42.84] |
'Cause weary eyes and weary shoulders |
| [02:48.27] |
Won't bring her back to you |
| [02:53.72] |
You used to be a man of color |
| [02:59.29] |
And now you're midnight blue |
| [03:04.74] |
Your weary eyes and weary shoulders |
| [03:10.16] |
Won't bring her back, it's true, yes it's true |
| [03:15.69] |
You used to be a man of color once |
| [03:21.51] |
But now you're midnight blue |
