by Wilson Pickett and Steve Cropper

IUm gonna wait till the midnight hour, thatUs when my love comes tumbling down
IUm gonna wait till the midnight hour, when thereUs no one else a-round,
IUm gonna take you, girl, and hold you, and do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour, yes I am, oh yes, I am

IUm gonna wait till stars come out, and see that twinkle    in your eyes,
IUm gonna wait till the midnight hour, ThatUs when my love begins to shine.
YouUll be the only girl IUll love, and really love you so in the midnight hour
Oh yeah, in the midnight hour

repeat & fade:  IUm gonna wait till the midnight hour
