Lyrics of Midnight Train by The Washboard Union
And I′ll be riding that midnight train when it's leavin′
I'll be going away to stay
I always wanted to know where that engine did go
Gonna go where it goes today
I have been all around my old home town
I've searched everywhere I know
But I can′t find a trace of my girl in this place
So there′s nothing to do but go
And I'll be riding that midnight train when it′s leavin'
I′ll be going going away to stay
I always wanted to know where that engine did go
Gonna go where it goes today
Oh she said she'd be true till the fighting was through
That she′d wait for me till the end
But as she's proven untrue and our sweet love is through
Now I'm catching that train again
And I′ll be riding that midnight train when it′s leavin'
I′ll be going going away to stay
I always wanted to know where that engine did go
Gonna go where it goes today
When she hears that old song, will she know that she's wrong
When I′m leaving my old hometown
She said that she'd wait just to be my sweet maid
Laid my heart to the ground
And I′ll be riding that midnight train when it's leavin'
I′ll be going going away to stay
I always wanted to know where that engine did go
Gonna go where it goes today
I′ve seen that old train pulling out in the rain
I've seen her with the stars up above
Like a hound on the trail, hell it carries the mail
To take me away from my love
And I′ll be riding that midnight train when it's leavin′
I'll be going going away to stay
I always wanted to know where that engine did go
Gonna go where it goes today
I′m gonna go where it goes today
