Empress Gladys and the Pips - Midnight Train To Georgia lyrics

L.A. Proved too much for the man Too much for the man, he couldn't make it So he's leavin' the life he's come to know uhoo He said he's goin' He said he's goin' back to find Goin' back to find Ooh, 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 Said he's goin' back Goin' back to find To a simpler place in time Oh yes he is And I'll be with him (I know you will) On that midnight train to Georgia (leavin' on the midnight train to Georgia) I'd rather live in his world Than live without him in mine That world is his, his and 'ers alone He kept dreamin' (dreamin') That someday he'd be a star A super star, but he didn't get far But he sure found out the hard way That dreams don't always come true So he pawned all his hopes And he even sold his old car Bought a one way ticket back To the life he once knew Oh yes he did He said he would Oh oh he's leavin' On that midnight train to Georgia (leavin' on the midnight train) Said he's goin' back to find Oh a simpler place in time And I'm gonna be with him (I know you will) On that midnight train to Georgia I'd rather live in his world Than be without him in mine The world is his, his and 'ers alone Oh he's leavin' On that midnight train to Georgia (leavin' on the midnight train) Said he's goin' back to find (goin' back to find) Oh a simpler place in time And I've gotta be with him (I know you will) On the midnight train to Georgia I'd rather live in his world Than be without him in mine The world is his, his and 'ers alone For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia For love gonna board The midnight train to Georgia
