"Midnight to Six Man" is a song by British garage rock band the Pretty Things. It was first published in 1966 and registered at number 46 in the UK Singles Chart[3] and 19 in the Netherlands.

The arrangement is one of the fullest on early Pretty Things cuts, due to the piano of Nicky Hopkins (who played similar R&B piano on the Who's My Generation album) and Margo Lewis, the organist from the all-female band Goldie and the Gingerbreads.[4]
