Riding That Midnight Train

Doc Watson

No matter what I say or do

You're never satisfied

I've tried to please you too many times

So now i'm leaving you now goodbye



Riding on that midnight train

Lord my head's a hanging low

These awful blues will follow me

wherever I may go



Why on earth was I ever born

I'll never understand

To fall in love with a girl like you

Who's in love with another man



Riding on that midnight train

Lord my head's a hanging low

These awful blues will follow me

wherever I may go



You broke a heart that trusted you

Why wasn't it made of stone

you've left my world as black as night

And yet I must travel on



Riding on that midnight train

Lord my head's a hanging low

These awful blues will follow me

wherever I may go
