The Wailers - Midnight Ravers Lyrics

Lyrics Midnight Ravers - The Wailers



Do-do-do. Do-do-do. Do-do-do.
(You can′t tell the woman from the man)
No, I say you can't, ′cause they're dressed in the same pollution;
(Dressed in the same pollution)
Their mind is confused with confusion
With their problems since they've no solution:
They become the midnight ravers.
Someone say:
(Please, don′t let me down!)
Oh, please, don′t let me - ee-ya-bab, oh, please don't let me down!
(Midnight) Midnight ravers! (ravers) Midnight ravers!
(Please don′t) Oh, please, please,
Don't let me down, down, down, down, down!
Don′t let me down;
Don't let me down.
I see ten thousand chariots (ah-ah-ah-ah)
And they coming without horses; (coming without horses)
The riders - they cover their face, (ah-ah-ah-ah)
So you couldn′t make them out in smoky place -
(Make them out in smoky places)
In that musical stampede, where everyone is doing their thing.
Musical stampede - people swingin';
Musical stampede. Someone say:
People, ride on! (keep a-ridin'!)
(Keep a-ridin′!) Ride on!
(Keep a-ridin′!) Midnight ravers!
People, ride on! (keep a-ridin'!)
(Keep a-ridin′!) Ride on!
(Keep a-ridin'!) Midnight ravers!
I can′t tell my woman from the man:
She is dressed in the same pollution; (dressed in the same pollution)
Her mind is confused with confusion:
To my problem seems there's never - never no solution!
I′ve become a night-life raver
And I'm beggin' you, (please) please, please -
Oh, beel-ya-ba-ba - please don′t ya let me down!
(Night-life ravers) Night-life ravers! Night-life ravers!
Oh, please, please, please, please, don′t let me down.
Don't let me down;
Don′t let me down!
I see ten thousand chariots (ah-ah-ah-ah)
And they coming without horses; (coming without horses)
The riders they cover their face, (ah-ah-ah-ah)
So you couldn't make them out in smoky place -
In that musical stampede, oh!
It′s the musical stampede. Ride on!
It's the musical stampede, some preacher say!
People ride on! (keep a-ridin′!)
(Keep a-ridin'!) Ride on!
(Keep a-ridin'!) Midnight ravers!
A-ride on! (keep a-ridin′!)
(Keep a-ridin′!) Ride on!
(Keep a-ridin'!) Midnight ravers!
Ride on, y′all! (keep a-ridin'!)
(Keep a-ridin′!) Ride on!
(Keep a-ridin'!) Midnight ravers!
Ride on! (keep a-ridin′!)
(Keep a-ridin'!) Don't let me down, midnight ravers!
(Keep a-ridin′!)
Midnight ravers, don′t let me down! (keep a-ridin'!)
Don′t let me down - don't let me down! (keep a-ridin′!)
Well, I'm comin′!
I got too much talkin'.
