midnight train to georgia
Singer:gladys knight
l.a. proved too much for the man
so he's leaving a life he's come to know
he said he's going back to find
the world he left behind not so long ago
on that midnight train to georgia
to a simpler place and time
on that midnight train to georgia
i'd rather live in his world
than live without him in mine
that some day he'd be a star
but he sure found out the hard way
that dreams don't always come true
so he pawned down his hopes
and even sold his old car
bought a one way ticket back to the life he once knew
on that midnight train to georgia
said he's going back to find
on that midnight train to georgia
i'd rather live in his world
than live without him in mine
on the midnight train to georgia
said he's going back to find
on that midnight train to georgia
i'd rather live in his world
than live without him in mine
gonna board the midnight train to ride
gotta board the midnight train to go
