Morning Train |
There’s a morning train |
Headed for New Orleans |
Carrying bussiness men and week day shoppers |
I have sixteen bucks and a dollar in change |
That’s not bad price for a one way ride |
On a morning train |
I give you my devotion |
You left me heartsick |
Oh, you couldn’t had hurt me more |
Not workin' with a night stick |
Now I’m tired of sharin' this bed of nails |
So come first light I’m gonna be right |
With the mornin' train |
So goodbye lover, I’m goin' undercover |
Crescent City’s gonna swallow me |
Gonna skip my ring 'cross the Mississippi River |
When it sinks I won’t' feel a thing |
When it sinks I won’t feel a thing |
I’m gonna be stayin' |
With a short time acquaintance |
When I met him he was playin' |
On the Gulf Breeze Circuit |
He didn’t play no hit songs or TV themes |
He’s a guitar man just a hired hand |
From a local band |
The whistles blowin' clear and loud |
When I hit the station |
I’ll take a taxi to the corner |
I’m gonna meet him by a street car |
Name of what-cha-ma-call-it |
My imagination |
Won’t let us miss a thing |
Life’s gonna be fine when I leave him behind |
On a mornin' train |
