Midnight Train |
I left my gal sad and lonely, left her standing in the rain |
I went down to the railroad, I caught myself a midnight train |
I beat my way into Texas, landed in a gambling town |
I got myself into trouble, I shot the county sheriff down |
Oh Lord, I shot the county sheriff down |
They put the handcuffs on me, tied me with a ball and chain |
They took me to El Paso, they tied me with a ball and chain |
These prisonbars all around me, no-one to call my bail |
My heart’s sad and so lonely, I want to get out of this jail |
Oh Lord, I want to get out of this jail |
The jury read the verdict, murder in the first degree |
The judge said, take this prisoner to the penitentiary |
They put the handcuffs on me, tied me with a ball and chain |
I’d left my home forever and I’ll never see my gal again |
Oh Lord, I’ll never see my gal again |
