Smokie - Poor Lady (Midnight Baby)

[00:06.30] I met a girl in L.A. and she seemed alright to me, [00:28.99] She said she'd give me loving and she said it would be free, [00:36.26] She told me she would call me or leave a message at the door, [00:43.46] And left me wondering what I was in for. [00:49.84] By the next time that I saw her I had clean forgot her name [01:02.51] And without her fancy make-up she just didn't look the same, [01:09.78] So I totally ignored her and she sadly turned away, [01:17.81] And through sympathy I told her she could stay. [01:22.42] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [01:28.84] No one wants your love at all, [01:32.44] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [01:35.11] Now you're heading for a fall, [01:39.65] And you really think your're something, [01:43.38] You know all the things to do [01:47.83] But poor lady, just a baby, [01:51.46] There's a hundred more like you. [01:55.95] Now for two weeks more she was at my door, [02:05.09] She would stay with me for days, [02:07.72] As a lover she was frightening in so many different ways, [02:14.96] But when it came to conversation she was totally absurd, [02:22.27] Oh she'd sit for hours and never say a word. [02:28.55] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [02:34.06] No one wants your love at all, [02:38.50] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [02:41.27] Now you're heading for a fall, [02:44.83] And you really think your're something, [02:49.40] You know all the things to do [02:53.07] But poor lady, just a baby, [02:56.65] There's a hundred more like you. [03:03.92] She spends her days in different ways, still trying to be hip, [03:20.20] And at night she'll find she'll lose her mind, at a club along the strip, [03:27.45] When her money goes she always knows she got something she can sell, [03:35.61] It's the one thing that she really can do well. [03:41.07] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [03:46.51] No one wants your love at all, [03:51.06] Oh poor lady, midnight baby, [03:54.68] Now you're heading for a fall, [03:58.29] And you really think your're something, [04:01.87] You know all the things to do [04:05.50] But poor lady, just a baby, [04:09.13] There's a hundred more like you.
