Songtexte Midnight Train to Georgia - Remastered - Lynn Anderson

L.A. proved too much for the man
So, he's leaving the life, he's come to know
He said, he's going back to find
What is left, of his world
What he left behind, not so long ago

He said, he's leavin', (Leavin')
On that midnight train, to Georgia
(Leaving, on the midnight train, to Georgia)
Said, he's going back to find
A simpler place in time

And I'll be with him, (With him), (With him)
On that midnight train, to Georgia
(Leaving, on the midnight train, to Georgia)
I'd rather live, in his world
Than to live, without him, in my life

He kept dreaming
That someday, he'd be the star
But he sure found out, the hard way
Dreams, don't always come true

So, he pawned all his hopes
Even sold his own car
What a one way ticket, back
To the life, that he once knew

He said, he's leavin', (Leavin')
On that midnight train, to Georgia
(Leaving, on the midnight train, to Georgia)
Said, he's going back to find
A simpler place in time

And I'll be with him, (With him), (With him)
On that midnight train, to Georgia
(Leaving, on the midnight train, to Georgia)
I'd rather live, in his world
Than to live, without him, in my life

He said, he's leavin', (Leavin')
On that midnight train, to Georgia
(Leaving, on the midnight train, to Georgia)
Said, he's going back to find, (Going back to find)
A simpler place in time
