Midnight Train Thru Alabama
A midnight train thru Alabama
I wonder what it’s hauling
There’s a creaking in these hills
I've nowhere to be going
Train is getting closer
And louder by the second
Now passing with a humming
Beneath the iridescent
I hear the train is blowing
Whistling and rumbling
I’m tossing and I’m turning
Plowing over what I’m growing
Over and over.....
Another train thru Alabama
As I watch stars that are falling
My star it is still shinning
With a low and lonesome whining
Out here on the porch
Heart beats like a hammer
And steady like the rain
Midnight train thru Alabama
