Pawinee punk rocker in the mid seventies....

 

"Last night, a little dancer a-came dancin' to my door

Last night, a little angel came pumpin' on my floor

She said, "A-come, baby, you got a license for love

And if it expires, pray help from above"

Because

 

She don't like slavery, she won't sit and beg

But when I'm tired and lonely, she sees me to bed

A-what set you free and brought you to me, babe?

What set you free? I need you here by me

Because

 

In the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more

With a rebel yell, she cried more, more, more, wow

In the midnight hour, babe, more, more, more

With a rebel yell, more, more, more

 

A-he lives in a-his own heaven

Collects it to go from the 7-Eleven

Well, he's out all night to collect a fare

A-just so long, just so long it don't mess up his hair

Whoa, ah

 

I walked the world for you, babe

A thousand miles with you

I dried your tears of pain, babe

A million times for you

I'd sell my soul for you, babe

For money to burn for you

I'd give you all and have none, babe

Just to, just to, just to, a-just to, to have you here by me

Because

 

In the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more

With a rebel yell, she cried more, more, more, wow

In the midnight hour, babe, more, more, more

With a rebel yell, she cried more, more, more

More, more, more....."
