After Midnight

Used to pull in the driveway 'bout a minute to 12
Mum in the front yard 'bout to raise some hell
Yelling, "Better get inside
Nothing good happens after midnight"

She said, "There's fools on the highways, drag-racing their cars
There ain't nothing open but them rough-neck bars
Might get in a fist fight
Nothing good happens after midnight"

There's somethin' 'bout that old moon, makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their minds, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good
Happens after midnight

When I turned 18 and I went off to school
It was time to find out if what mamma told me was true
And she was so right
Nothing good happens after midnight

They put down the fear, break out the over-proof rum
Might see a pack o' honeys dancing in the back of a truck
The kind that I like
Nothing good happens after midnight

There's something 'bout that old moon that makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their minds, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good
Happens after midnight

They're lettin' down their hair, swinging it around
It don't look a thing like a sleepy little town
People waking up while we're still throwing down
Get down

There's something 'bout that old moon, makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their minds, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good
Happens after midnight (but that old moon)
Happens after midnight (it makes people crazy)
Happens after midnight
Nothing good happens after midnight (but that old moon)
Get down
