It's Midnight And I'm Not Famous Yet 

By: Jimmy Buffett, Steve Goodman 

1981 

For Barry Hanah 

Catch the elevator from the penthouse suite 

And take it down to the casino 

The god-almighty sound of money movin' round 

Can be heard all the way to Reno 



Chorus: 

Well it's midnight and I'm not famous yet 

Tryin' to win it all with one more bet 

Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop 

Or my ten dollar yo yo yo 

It's midnight, I'm just gettin' ready to roll 



(Midnight) 

Now Lester Polyester signs another marker 

Like the high rollers do 

Seven come eleven 

His brand new baby needs Gucci shoes 



Chorus: 

Well it's midnight she's not famous yet 

Tryin' to break the bank with one more bet 

Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop 

Or my ten dollar yo yo yo 

It's midnight, Lester's gettin' ready to roll 



Midnight (midnight) 

Midnight 



(instrumental) 



(Midnight) 

They're pagin' someone we know, Lester hits a keno 

He's not leavin' yet 

Vacuum cleaners hummin' lounge act still is strummin' 

It's their twenty-fourth set 

Well it's midnight they're not famous yet 

Tryin' to win it all with one more bet 

Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop 

Or my ten dollar yo yo yo 

It's midnight, got nowhere to go (Oh oh) 



Midnight (midnight) 

(Oh oh oh) 

Midnight (midnight) 



(Oh oh oh, Midnight) 

(Oh oh oh, Midnight) 

(Oh oh oh, Midnight) 

(Oh oh oh)
