Midnight Train To Georgia

L. A. Proved too much for the manSo he's leavin' the life he's come to knowHe said he's goin' back to findWhat's left of his worldThe world he left behind not so long agoHe's leavin'On that midnight train to georgiaSaid he's goin' back to findThe simpler place and timeI'll be with himOn that midnight train to georgiaI'd rather live in his worldThan live without him in mineHe kept dreamin'That someday he'd be a starBut he sho' found out the hard wayThat dreams don't always come trueSo he's pawned all his hopesAnd he even sold his own carBought a one-way ticket backTo the life he once knewSaid he's leavin'On that midnight train to georgiaSaid he's goin' backTo find the simpler place and timeI'm gonna be with himOn that midnight train to georgiaI'd rather live in his world than live without him in mineOh he's leavin' on the midnight train to georgiaSaid he's goin' back to findThe simpler place and timeI've got to be with himOn that midnight train to georgiaI'd rather live in his worldThan live without him in mineAll aboard, all aboard, all aboardOn the midnight train to georgiaI got to go I got to go I got to go
