Titre

L.A. proved too much for the man

(Too much for the man, he couldn't make it)

So he's leavin' the life he's come to know, ooh

(He said he's goin')

He said he's goin' back to find

(Goin' back to find)

Ooh ooh ooh, what's left of his world

The world he left behind

Not so long ago

 

He's leavin' (leavin')

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train)

Yeah, said he's goin' back

(Goin' back to find)

To a simpler place in time

(Whenever he takes that ride) oh yes he is

(Guess who's gonna be right by his side)

 

And I'll be with him (I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train to Georgia)

I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)

Than live without him in mine

(Her world is his, his and hers alone)

 

He kept dreamin' (dreamin')

Ooh, that someday he'd be a star

(A superstar, but he didn't get far)

But he sure found out the hard way

That dreams don't always come true

(Dreams don't always come true) oh no

(Uh uh) uh uh (no, uh uh)

So he pawned all his hopes (ooh ooh ooh)

And he even sold his old car (woo woo woo)

Bought a one way ticket back

To the life he once knew

Oh, yes, he did

He said he would

 

Oh, oh, he's leavin' (leavin')

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train)

Yeah, said he's goin' back to find

(Goin' back to find)

Ooh, a simpler place in time

(Whenever he takes that ride) ooh

(Guess who's gonna be right by his side)

 

And I'm gonna be with him (I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train to Georgia)

I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)

Than live without him in mine

(Her world is his, his and hers alone)

 

Oh, he's leavin' (leavin')

On the midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train)

Yeah, ooh, y'all

Said he's goin' back to find

(Goin' back to find)

Ooh, a simpler place in time

(Whenever he takes that ride) ooh

(Guess who's gonna be right by his side)

 

And I've got to be with him (I know you will)

On that midnight train to Georgia

(Leavin' on the midnight train to Georgia, ooh ooh)

I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)

Than live without him in mine

(Her world is his, his and hers alone)
