Midnight Train - The Charlie Daniels Band[00:00:00]
Midnight train roll on[00:00:29]
Midnight train roll on[00:00:35]
Clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'[00:00:42]
Take this stranger on to Santa Fe[00:00:44]
It seems like romance and danger[00:00:49]
Follow this here tall dark stranger all along the way[00:00:51]
Well the train was rumblin' through the night heading south to Santa Fe[00:00:59]
And in a fancy car with a private bar and a personal valet[00:01:02]
There was a bunch of cold eyed men sittin' at a poker table[00:01:06]
Bettin' hot stakes all around[00:01:09]
Ole Louisiana Lou had a knife in his shoe was dealin[00:01:13]
A hand of cards and ole Stagger Lee Crocket had a gun in his pocket[00:01:15]
Was sweatin' bettin' hard and over in the corner this Mexican guy[00:01:18]
With two gold teeth and a patch on his eye took a long hard look around[00:01:21]
And then the door flew open the stranger walked in[00:01:26]
Said "Dont y'all get excited I know this heres a private game[00:01:29]
And I know I wasnt invited but I got a roll thatd choke a mule[00:01:31]
Im just about a big enough fool to lay it all right down[00:01:34]
And everybody nodded as the stranger took his seat[00:01:40]
He knew this bunch of cutthroats would be mighty hard to beat[00:01:43]
As the stranger knew then the toughest two by far were where he sat[00:01:46]
Was a pot belly fellow from south Alabama and a dude in a black felt hat[00:01:50]
Midnight train roll on[00:01:53]
Midnight train roll on[00:01:59]
Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'[00:02:06]
Take this stranger on to Santa Fe[00:02:08]
It seems like romance and danger[00:02:13]
Follow this here tall dark stranger all along the way[00:02:15]
Well the stranger sat down he looked around at all them evil faces[00:02:24]
And the pot-belly fellow drew a pair of queens but the stranger[00:02:26]
He drew aces and he kept on raising and pushin' his luck[00:02:29]
Kept on winning like a run away truck he was giving them a beating[00:02:32]
And the stakes got higher than a Chinese kite the stranger[00:02:37]
Kept getting hot till every cent everybody had was lying out in the pot[00:02:39]
And then the stranger threw down a royal flush somebody said[00:02:44]
Hey man thats enough friend I think youve been cheatin'"[00:02:46]
And then the stranger picked the money up and said "Boys I better run[00:02:50]
And then the pot-bellied fella pulled a razor out somebody pulled a gun[00:02:53]
They said You may think youre a sly old fox youre gonna leave here[00:02:57]
In a long pine box if you dont leave that money alone"[00:03:00]
Just about then the lights went out and they all started fussin'[00:03:03]
And the lights came on the stranger was gone they all started cussin'[00:03:06]
And they searched that train from front to rear[00:03:10]
That stranger he done disappeared and all their money was gone[00:03:12]
When the train pulled in the station with the whistle blowin' loud[00:03:17]
A telegram was waitin' from the stranger for the crowd[00:03:20]
Said Thank you for the money boys but dont feel too outdone[00:03:24]
'Cause it takes a dog to know a dog Im a howlin' son of a gun[00:03:27]
Midnight train roll on[00:03:31]
(Roll on roll on)[00:03:35]
Midnight train roll on[00:03:37]
(Roll on roll on)[00:03:41]
Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowin'[00:03:44]
Take this stranger on to Santa Fe[00:03:46]
It seems like romance and danger[00:03:51]
Follow this here tall dark stranger all along the way[00:03:53]
Oh he's long gone[00:03:59]
