Midnight Train Songtext
von The Highwaymen

Thank you very much
I can′t possibly explain to you what
That sort of a reaction means to us
Except it does make doing the next song considerably easier

You'll hear the wheels, you′ll hear the rain
You'll hear the cry of the midnight train
You'll hear the locomotive come a-rollin′ on
I′m gone, I'm on my way
On the midnight train


Can′t you hear the whistle callin'?
I won′t be back
You can see me cannonballin'
On down the track
It′s a lonesome road
Just a midnight train
And a wearisome load

I'll keep on a-movin' while I′m in my prime
The wheels keep a-rumblin′ 'til the end of the line
I′m gonna keep on movin' as the days go by
Goodbye, I′m on my way
On the midnight train

Can't you hear the whistle callin′?
I won't be back
You can see me cannonballin'
On down the track
It′s a lonesome road
Just a midnight train
And a wearisome load
