Knight Gladys And The Pips - Midnight Train to Georgia Lyrics

L.A. proved too much for the man too much for the man
He couldn’ make it so he’s leavin’ a life he’s come to know
He said he’s goin’ He said he’s goin’ back to find goin’ back to find
Ooh, hooh, hooh, what’s left of his world –
The world he left behind not so long ago.
He’s leavin’ leavin’ on that midnight train to Georgia leavin’ on the midnight train
Mmmm… Yeah… Said he’s goin’ back goin’ back to find to a simpler place and time.
He’s gettin’ ready to take that ride Oh, yes he is Guess who’s gonna be right by his side
I-I-I-I’ll be with him I know you will on that midnight train to Georgia.
Leavin’ on the midnight train to Georgia Oo-oo-ooh, yea-heah-heah-heah! Woo, hooh!
I’d rather live in his world live in his world than live without him in mine.
Her world is his – his and hers, alone.
He kept dreamin’ dreamin’ Ooh, that someday he’d be a star
A superstar, but he didn’t get far.
But he sure found out the hard way that dreams don’t always come true!
Dreams don’t always come true. Oh, no Uh uh Uh uh No – Uh uh.
So he pawned all his hopes Woo, hooh, hooh, hooh and he even so-ho-ho-old his old car!
Woo, hooh, hooh, hooh Bought a one-way ticket back to the life he once knew.
Oh, yes he did – he said he would. Oh, huh,
He’s leavin’ leavin’ on that midnight train to Georgia leavin’ on the midnight train
Mmmm… Yeah… Said he’s goin’ back to find goin’ back to find Ooh! a simpler place and time.
He’s gettin’ ready to take that ride Oh Guess who’s gonna Yes be right by his side
I’m gonna be with him I know you will on that midnight train to Georgia.
Leavin’ on the midnight train to Georgia Woo, hooh!
I’d rather live in his world live in his world than live without him in mine.
Her world is his – his and hers, alone.
Ooh, he’s leavin’ leavin’ on that midnight train to Georgia leavin’ on the midnight train
