Midnight Mission

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There are faces of men

Who have lost at romance

There are others who never

Even had a chance

Old faces with not many years

Broken souls too tired for tears

But no one hears

'Cept the midnight mission

Thank God there's someone who cares

Oh, won't you line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Downtown where no one can see

I said now line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Thank God for humanity

Well there's John and there is Jim

Professional men

Till something made them

Never want to work again

Down on the corner

There's half a man

Lost his legs

In some foreign land

And Betty never had

Nothing anyway

So at the mission she'll stay

Oh, won't you line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Downtown where no one can see

I said now, line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Thank God for humanity

Thank God for humanity

We all work for the weekend

That's when we kick back with ease

But you're sending all our children

Out to corporate wars

When we can't even feed

Our own families

Oh, won't you line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Downtown where no one can see

I said now, line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Thank God for humanity

Thank God for humanity

Oh, won't you line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Downtown where no one can see

Baby, won't you, line' em up

Down at the midnight mission

Thank God for humanity

Thank God for humanity

Baby, won't you hide
