Rickie Lee Jones Night Train lyrics

Here I'm goin', walkin' with my baby in my arms
'Cuz I am in the wrong end of the eight ball black
And the devil, see he's right behind us
And this worker said
"She's gonna take my little baby, my little angel back"

But they won't get you no
'Cuz I'm right here with you
On the night train

Swing low, Saint Cadillac
Tearin' down the alley and I'm reachin' so high for ya
Don't let 'em take me back
Broken like Valiums and chumps in the rain
That cry and quiver


When a blue horizon is sleeping in the station
With a ticket for a train
Surely mine will deliver me there

Here she comes
I'm safe here with you
On the night train

Oh mamma, mamma
Concrete is wheeling by
Down at the end of a lullaby
On the night train
