| Well the midnight train can come and go without me;
|
| Oh I don’t need no taxi back to town.
|
| I think I’ll just stay right here in this deep old light,
|
| Was supposed to meet someone here tonight,
|
| Now I’m sittin here thinking,
|
| Waiting on a dark-eyed gal.
|
| No, I don’t mind the rain; |
| I never even noticed
|
| And I don’t feel the cold, it wouldn’t matter anyhow,
|
| As a matter of fact I could stay till the break of day,
|
| I don’t see as I’m in anybody’s way;
|
| I’m just sittin here thinking,
|
| Waiting on a dark eyed gal.
|
| She said she’d meet me at the station,
|
| Don’t believe she’ll keep me waiting very long
|
| Very long.
|
| She never was one to let me know her mind,
|
| So I’ll stay right here, just doing my time
|
| Just sitting here thinking,
|
| Waiting on a dark eyed gal.
|
| Yeah, the midnight train has come and gone without me,
|
| I don’t need no taxi back to town.
|
| I think I’ll just stay right here in this deep old light,

|
| Waiting on a dark eyed gal;
|
| Yeah I’m just sitting here thinking,
|
| Waiting on a dark-eyed gal. |
