LA proved too much for the man |
|
He couldnt make it, so he's leaving a life he's come to know |
|
He said he's going back to find what's left of his world |
|
The world he left behind not so long ago |
|
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia |
|
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time |
|
I'll be with him on that midnight train to Georgia |
|
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine |
|
He kept dreaming that some day he would be a star |
|
But he sure found out the hard way |
|
That dreams don't always come true |
|
So he pawned all his hopes and even sold his old car |
|
For a one way ticket back to the life he once knew |
|
Oh yes he did, he said he would |
|
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia |
|
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time |
|
I'm gonna be with him on that midnight train to Georgia |
|
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine |
|
World, world, it's his and her's alone |
|
He's leaving on the midnight train to Georgia |
|
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time |
|
I've got to be with him on that midnight train to Georgia |
|
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine |
|
My love, gonna board the midnight train to Georgia (x3) |
|
My world, his world, our world, mine and his alone (x2) |
|
I've got to go (x5) |
|
My world, his world, my man, his girl |
