Midnight Train

Midnight Train (午夜列车) - The Charlie Daniels Band[00:00:00]

Written by:C. Daniels/C. Hayward/J. Gavin/T. DiGregorio/T. Crain[00:00:01]

Midnight train roll on[00:00:29]

Midnight train roll on[00:00:35]

Clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowing[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 rumbling through the night[00:00:59]

Heading south to Santa Fe[00:01:01]

And in a fancy car with a private bar and a personal valet[00:01:03]

There was a bunch of cold eyed men a sitting at a poker table[00:01:06]

Betting hot stakes all around[00:01:09]

Ole Louisiana Lou had a knife in his shoe[00:01:13]

Was dealin' a hand of cards[00:01:15]

And ole stagger lee crochet had a gun in his pocket[00:01:16]

Was sweating Betting hard[00:01:18]

And over in the corner this Mexican guy with two gold[00:01:20]

Teeth and a patch on his eye[00:01:22]

Took a long hard look around[00:01:23]

And then the door flew open[00:01:26]

The stranger walked in and said don't ya'll get excited[00:01:27]

I know this here's a private game[00:01:29]

And I know I wasn't invited[00:01:31]

But I got a roll that'd choke a mule[00:01:33]

I'm just about a big enough fool to lay it all right down[00:01:35]

And everybody nodded as the stranger took his seat[00:01:40]

He knew this bunch of cutthroat's 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[00:01:50]

And a dude in a black felt hat[00:01:51]

Midnight train roll on[00:01:53]

Midnight train roll on[00:01:59]

Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowing[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[00:02:27]

But the stranger he drew aces[00:02:29]

And he kept on raising and pushing his luck[00:02:30]

Kept on winning like a run away truck[00:02:32]

He was giving them a beating[00:02:34]

And the stakes got higher than a Chinese kite[00:02:37]

The stranger kept getting hot[00:02:39]

Till every cent everybody had was lying out in that pot[00:02:40]

Then the stranger threw down a royal flush[00:02:44]

Somebody said[00:02:45]

Hey man that's enough friend I think you've been cheating[00:02:46]

And then the stranger picked the money up and said[00:02:50]

Boys I better run[00:02:53]

And then the bot bellyed fella pulled a razor out[00:02:54]

And somebody pulled a gun[00:02:56]

They said you may think you're a sly old fox[00:02:57]

You're gonna leave here in a long pine box[00:02:59]

If you don't leave that money alone[00:03:01]

Just about then the lights went out[00:03:04]

And they all started fussing[00:03:06]

And the lights came on the stranger was gone[00:03:07]

They all started cussing[00:03:09]

And they searched that train from front to rear[00:03:10]

The stranger he done disappeared[00:03:12]

And all their money was gone[00:03:14]

When the train pulled in the station[00:03:17]

With the whistle blowing loud[00:03:19]

A telegram was waiting from the stranger for the crowd[00:03:20]

Said thank you for the money boys[00:03:24]

But don't feel too outdone[00:03:25]

Cause it takes a dog to know a dog[00:03:27]

I'm a howling son of a gun[00:03:29]

Midnight train roll on[00:03:31]

Midnight train roll on[00:03:37]

Well clear them tracks and keep that whistle blowing[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]
