Midnight Train to Georgia

[Spoken Intro]

How ya feelin' tonight?

All right now

[Verse 1]

L.A proved too much for the man

(Too much for the man he couldn't make it)

So he's leavin' the life he's come to know

(He said he's goin)

He said he's goin' back to find

(Goin back to find)

Ooh ooh ooh what's left of his world

The world he left behind

Not so long ago

[Chorus]

He's leaving (leavin)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin on a midnight train)

Said he's goin' back (Goin back to find)

To a simpler place and time

(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)

Oh yes he is

And I'll be with him (I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)

I'd rather live in his world

Than live without him in mine

(That world is his, his and hers alone)

[Verse 2]

He kept dreamin' (Dreamin)

Ooh that someday he'd be a star

(A superstar but he didn't get far)

But he sure found out the hard way

That dreams don't always come true

(Dreams don't always come true)

Oh no! ah ah (uh uh, no, uh uh)

So he pawned all his hopes

And he even sold his old car

Bought a one way ticket back

To the life he once knew

Oh yes he did

[Chorus]

He said he would

Oh oh he's leavin (leavin)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leaving on a midnight train )

Said he's goin' back to find (Goin back to find)

Oh a simpler place and time

(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)

I'm gonna be with him

(I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)

I'd rather live in his world (Live in his world)

Than live without him in mine

(Her world is his, his and hers alone)

Ooh, he's leaving

(Leaving)

On the midnight train to Georgia

(Leaving on the midnight train)

Said he's going back to find

(Going back to find)

Ooh, a simpler place and time

(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)

I've got to be with him

(I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)

I'd rather live in his world

(Live in his world)

Than live without him in mine

(Her world is his, his and hers alone)

[Outro]

For love, gonna board the midnight train to ride

For love, gonna board, gotta board the midnight train to go

For love, gonna board, uh huh, the midnight train to go

My world, his world, our world, mine and his alone

My world, his world, our world, mine and his alone

I got to go

I got to go

I got to go, hey

I got to go

My world, his world, my man, his girl

I got to go

I got to go, oh

I got to go

My world, his world, our world, his girl
