Lyrics
Here I'm going
Walkin' with my baby in my arms
'Cause 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
They won't getcha, no
'Cause I'm right here with you
On a night train
Swing low, Saint Cadillac
Tearin' down the alley
And I'm reachin' so high for you
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
Mama, mama, mama, mama
Concrete is wheeling by
Down at the end of a lullaby
On the night train
Writer(s): Rickie Jones
