About After Midnight

"After Midnight" is a rock song by J. J. Cale, first released in 1966. Eric Clapton later covered it for his eponymous album, released in 1970. Clapton's rendition became a success, prompting Cale to re-record the song for Cale's 1972 album Naturally. In 1988, Clapton later re-recorded the song for a Michelob beer commercial and then released the re-recording as a single. "After Midnight" has been considered one of Clapton's signature songs throughout his career. Other artists covered the song in later years.

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down
After midnight, we're gonna chug-a-lug and shout
We're gonna stimulate some action
We're gonna get some satisfaction
We're gonna find out what it is all about
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down (after midnight, after midnight)

After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine (after midnight, after midnight)
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream (after midnight, after midnight)
We're gonna cause talk and suspicion
We're gonna give an exhibition
We're gonna find out what it is all about (what it is all about) (what it is all about)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down (we're gonna let it all hang down)
(We're gonna let it all hang down)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down

After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine
(We're gonna shake your tambourine) (we're gonna shake your tambourine)
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream
(We're gonna shake your tambourine) (we're gonna shake your tambourine)
We're gonna cause talk and suspicion
We're gonna give an exhibition
We're gonna find out what it is all about (what it is all about, what it is all about)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down (after midnight, after midnight)

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down
(We're gonna let it all hang down) we're gonna let it all hang down)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down
(We're gonna let it all hang down) (we're gonna let it all hang down)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down
(We're gonna let it all hang down) (we're gonna let it all hang down)
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang down
(We're gonna let it all hang down) (we're gonna let it all hang down)
