The Peawees - Midnight Train lyrics

Artist: The Peawees

album: 20 Years and You Still Don't Know Me


I left my girl sad and lonely
Left her standing in the rain
I went down to the railroad
Caught myself a midnight train
I beat my way into Texas
Landed in a gambling town
I got myself into trouble
I shot the county sheriff down
Oh Lord, I shot the county sheriff down
They put the handcuffs on me
Tied me with a ball and chain
They took me to El Paso
They tied me with a ball and chain
These prison bars all around me
No one to call my bail
My heart's sad and so lonely
Yes, I wanna get out of this jail
Oh Lord, I wanna get out of this jail
♪
The jury read the verdict
"Murder in the first degree"
The judge said, "Take this prisoner to the penitentiary"
They put the handcuffs on me
Tied me with a ball and chain
I'd left my home forever
And I'll never see my girl again
Oh Lord, I'll never see my girl again
