Midnight Train To Georgia Lyrics

L.A. proved too much for the man
So he's leavin' the life he's come to know
He said he's goin' back to find
Ooh, what's left of his world
The world he left behind
Not so long ago
He's leaving
On that midnight train to Georgia
And he's goin' back
To a simpler place and time
And 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 dreamin'
That someday he'd 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 he even sold his old car
Bought a one way ticket
To the life he once knew
Oh yes he did
He said he would
Be leavin'
On that midnight train to Georgia
And he's goin' back
To a simpler place and time
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine
Go, gonna board, gonna board
Gonna board the midnight train
Gotta go, gonna board
Gonna board
Gonna board the midnight train
