Midnight Assignation

I’m motivatin’ highway, where the 61 cross the 49
I’m motivatin’ highway, where the 61 cross the 49
Got a midnight assignation
Lord, I got to be there
Lord, I got to be there
Lord, I got to be there on time

I been soul defiled, my mind is sick, my heart is sore
I been soul defiled, my mind is sick, my heart is sore
And I been obliterated
Lord, I ain’t gon’ be there
Lord, I ain’t gon’ be there
Lord, I ain’t gon’ be there no more

Blues walked out this mornin’, devil is my only friend
Blues walked out this mornin’, devil is my only friend
Lord, I hear the angels cryin’
“Another soul is lost
Another soul is lost
Another soul is lost again”

Midnight assignation, when you hear them church bells toll
Midnight assignation, when you hear them church bells toll
Me and Scratch got business
Lord, I ‘bout to pawn my
Lord, I ‘bout to pawn my
Lord, I ‘bout to pawn my soul
