Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, here it comes
[Verse 1]
Well, train, train
Take me on out of this town
Train, train
Lord, take me on out of this town
Well, that woman I'm in love with
Lord, she's Memphis bound
[Verse 2]
Well, leavin' here
I'm just a raggedy hobo
Lord, I'm leaving here
I'm just a raggedy hobo
Well, that woman I'm in love with
Lord, she's got to go
[Verse 3]
Well, goodbye pretty mama
Get yourself a money man
Goodbye, pretty mama
Lord, get yourself a money man
You take that midnight train to Memphis
Lord, leave if you can
Oh, take that midnight train to Memphis
Lord, leave if you can
Oh, take that train, baby
