Midnight Train to Georgia Songtext
von Lynn Anderson

LA proved to 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
The world he left behind... not so long ago...

He said he's leaving
On that midnight train to Georgia
He said he's going back to find...
A simpler place and time...


And I′ll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia
I′d rather live in his world
Than to live without him in mine
He kept dreaming
That someday he'd be the star
But he sure found out the hard way...
That dreams don′t always come true...
So he pawned all his hopes
And even sold his old car
Bought a one-way ticket back
To the life that he once knew
And he's leaving
On that midnight train to Georgia
He said he′s going back to find...
A simpler place and time
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia
I′d rather live in his world
Than to live without him in mine
And he's leaving
On that midnight train to Georgia
He said he's going back to find
Going back to find a simpler place in time...
And I′ll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia
