Midnight train roll on

Midnight train roll on

Clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'

Take this stranger on to Santa Fe

It seems like romance and danger

Follow this tall dark here stranger all along the way

Well the train was rumblin' through the night heading south to Santa Fe

And in a fancy car with a private bar and a personal valet

There was a bunch of cold eyed men sittin' at a poker table

Bettin' hot stakes all around

Ole Louisiana Lou had a knife in his shoe was dealin

A hand of cards and ole Stagger Lee Crocket had a gun in his pocket

Was sweatin' bettin' hard and over in the corner this Mexican guy

With two gold teeth and a patch on his eye took a long hard look around

And then the door flew open the stranger walked in

Said Dont y'all get excited I know this heres a private game

And I know I wasnt invited but I got a roll thatd choke a mule

Im just about a big enough fool to lay it all right down

And everybody nodded as the stranger took his seat

He knew this bunch of cutthroats would be mighty hard to beat

As the stranger knew then the toughest two by far were where he sat

Was a pot belly fellow from south Alabama and a dude in a black felt hat

Midnight train roll on

Midnight train roll on

Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'

Take this stranger on to Santa Fe

It seems like romance and danger

Follow this here tall dark stranger all along the way

Well the stranger sat down he looked around at all them evil faces

And the pot-belly fellow drew a pair of queens but the stranger

He drew aces and he kept on raising and pushin' his luck

Kept on winning like a run away truck he was giving them a beating

And the stakes got higher than a Chinese kite the stranger

Kept getting hot till every cent everybody had was lying out in the pot

And then the stranger threw down a royal flush somebody said

Hey man thats enough friend I think youve been cheatin'

And then the stranger picked the money up and said Boys I better run

And then the pot-bellied fella pulled a razor out somebody pulled a gun

They said You may think youre a sly old fox youre gonna leave here

In a long pine box if you dont leave that money alone

Just about then the lights went out and they all started fussin'

And the lights came on the stranger was gone they all started cussin'

And they searched that train from front to rear

That stranger he done disappeared and all their money was gone

When the train pulled in the station with the whistle blowin' loud

A telegram was waitin' from the stranger for the crowd

Said Thank you for the money boys but dont feel too outdone

'Cause it takes a dog to know a dog Im a howlin' son of a gun

Midnight train roll on

(Roll on roll on)

Midnight train roll on

(Roll on roll on)

Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'

Take this stranger on to Santa Fe

It seems like romance and danger

Follow this here tall dark stranger all along the way

Oh he's long gone
