A wreckless heart was beatin' in that restless girl of
Mine and I was thinkin' that she'd be all right
That train has been around and now it finally crossed her
Mind and the midnight run was rollin' right on time
It was rollin', rollin' right on time
Chorus
It was a lo-loco motive
Even if it were a bull she would have rode it
To get out of here she didn't care
It was a lo-loco motive
It would have been a car, could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train
Those mighty wheels will rumble as they pa** the hobo
Jungle and I bet he's wishin' now that he had stayed
I never should have let her, guess i should have known her
Better and I would if it wasn't for that train
If it wasn't, wasn't for that train
Chorus
It was a lo-loco motive
Even if it were a bull she would have rode it
To get out of here she didn't care
It was a lo-loco motive
It would have been a car, could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train
Bridge
She never really left me, she just left that one horse town
She hit the track and she won't be back to stand on common ground
Chorus
It was a lo-loco motive
Even if it were a bull she would have rode it
It was a lo-loco motive
It would have been a car, could have been a plane
Just so happened to be the midnight train
