Baby baby don't go
L.A. proved too much for the man
So he's leavin' the life that he's come to know
He said he's goin' back
What's left of his world
The world he left behind
Not so long ago
He's leaving (leaving)
On that midnight train to Georgia (leaving on that midnight train)
He said he's goin' back (goin' back to find)
To a simpler place and time (whenever he takes that ride, I'm gonna be right by his side)
And I'm gonna be with him (I know you will)
On that midnight train to Georgia (leaving on that midnight train to Georgia)
I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)
Than live without him in mine
He kept dreaming
That someday he wound 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)
So he pawned all his hopes
And he even sold that old ragged car
He bought a one way ticket back
To the life that he once knew
He's leaving (leaving)
On that midnight train to Georgia (leaving on that midnight train)
Wait for me baby I'm coming
He said he's goin' back (goin' back to find)
To a simpler place and time (whenever he takes that ride, I'm gonna be right by his side)
And I'm gonna be with him (I know you will)
On that midnight train to Georgia (leaving on that midnight train to Georgia)
I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)
Than live without him in mine
I've gotta be on the midnight train to Georgia
He is leaving
On that midnight train to Georgia
Gonna board... the midnight train...
