The Midnight Train
Well I've been all around my old home town,
I have 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.

(Chorus)
I'll be riding that midnight train when it's leaving,
And I'm going away to stay;
Always wanted to know where the engine would go,
Gonna go where it goes today.

Oh she said she'd be true till the fighting was through,
Said she'd wait for me till the end;

But she's proven untrue and our sweet love is through,
So I'm catching that train again.

(Chorus)

Well I've seen that old train pulling out in the rain,
Seen it leave with the stars up above;
Like a hound on the trail he'd carry the mail,
It will take me away from that love.

(Chorus 2x)

Always wanted to know where the engine would go, gonna go where it goes today.
