Riding That Midnight Train Songtext
von Doc Watson

No matter what I say or do, you′re never satisfied
I've tried to please you too many times
So I′m leaving you now, goodbye

Riding on that midnight train, Lord, my head's a-hanging low
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


Why on earth was I ever born? I'll never understand
To fall in love with a girl like you who′s in love with another man

Riding on that midnight train, Lord, my head′s a-hanging low
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go

You broke a heart that trusted you, why wasn't it made of stone?
You′ve left my world as black as night, and yet I must travel on

Riding on that midnight train, Lord, my head's a-hanging low
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go
