Midnight Train To Memphis - The SteelDrivers

作词：Mike Henderson/Chris Stapleton

作曲：Mike Henderson/Chris Stapleton

Well judge looked down gave me

fourty days

Instead of the fine that i could not pay

Said walk right you'll soon be home

Cross the line and you're on your own

Fourty days of shotguns and barbed

wire fences

Fourty nights to sit an listen to the

midnight train to memphis

Well now whistle blows when the

sun comes up

Head to floor keep your big mouth shut

Eat your breakfast on the ground

Work like hell till the sun goes down

Fourty days of shotguns and barbed

wire fences

Fourty nights to sit an listen to the

midnight train to memphis

Well now 10 for the jury 10 for

the judge

20 more to forget my grudge

When i get to 39

That's the longest day in

a prisoner's mind

Fourty days of shotguns and barbed

wire fences

Fourty nights to sit an listen to the

midnight train to memphis

Midnight train to memphis

Midnight train to memphis

On the midnight train to memphis
