L.A. proved too much for the man
He couldnt make it - so he's leaving a life he's come to know
Say he's going back to find - what's left of his world
The world he left behind not so long ago
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time
I'll be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine
He kept dreaming that some day he would be a star
But he sure found out the hard way that dreams don't always come true
So he pawned all his hopes and even sold his old car
For a one way ticket back to the life he once knew
He's leaving on that midnight train to Georgia
Said he's going back to find a simpler place and time
I've got to be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world, than live without him in mine
World, world , it's his and her's alone.....
Wow!!!! Talk about a faulty memory!! Thanks - you've made me a better person. Any lyrics available with the classic backing vocals?
