Midnight Train to Georgia (Single Version)

L.A. proved too much for the man

Too much for the man, he couldn't make it

So he's leaving a life he's come to know, ooh

He said he's going

He said he's going back to find

Going back to find

Ooh-ooh-ooh, what's left of his world

The world he left behind not so long ago

He's leaving

Leaving

On that midnight train to Georgia

Leaving on a midnight train

Yeah

Said he's going back

Going back to find

To a simpler place in time

Whenever he takes that ride

Oh, yes he is

Guess who's gonna be right by his side

I'll be with him

I know you will

On that midnight train to Georgia

Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo, woo

Yeah

I'd rather live in his world than live without him

Live in his world

In mine

Her world is his, his and hers alone

He kept dreamin'

Dreamin'

Ooh, that some day 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

Uh-uh, no, uh-uh

Uh-uh

So he pawned all his hopes

Woo, woo, woo, woo

And he even sold his old car

Woo, woo, woo, woo

Bought a one way ticket back to the life he once knew

Oh, yes, he did, he said he would

I know he's leaving

Leaving

On that midnight train to Georgia

Leaving on a midnight train

Yeah

Ooh, y'all, said he's going back to find

Going back to find

Ooh, a simpler place in time

Whenever he takes that ride

Ooh, y'all

Guess who's gonna be right by his side

I got to be with him

I know you will

On that midnight train to Georgia

Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo, woo

Yeah

I'd rather live in his world than live without him in mine

Live in his world

Her world is his, his and hers alone

Oh, hey, for love, gonna board the midnight train and ride

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

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

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

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

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

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

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

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

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

I've got to go, I've got to go, I've got to go

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

Hey

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go

For love, gonna board the midnight train and go
