Lyrics

L.A. proved too much for the man
 [(Too much for the man, he couldn't make it)]
 So he's leaving a life
 He's come to know, ooh
 [(He said he's going)]
 He said he's going back to find
 [(Going back to find)]
 Ooh, what's left of his world
 The world he left behind not so long ago
 He's leaving [(leaving)]
 On that midnight train to Georgia, yeah
 [(Leaving on the midnight train)] yeah
 Said he's going back [(going back to find)]
 To a simpler place and time, oh yes he is
 [(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)]
 I'll be with him [(I know you will)]
 On that midnight train to Georgia
 [(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)]
 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 dreaming [(dreaming)]
 Ooh, that some day 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, oh no, uh uh
 [(Dreams don't always come true, uh uh, no, uh uh)]
 So he pawned all his hopes
 [(Woo, woo, woo-woo)]
 And even sold his old car
 [(Woo, 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 leaving [(leaving)]
 On that midnight train to Georgia, yeah
 [(Leaving on a midnight train)]
 Said he's going back to find, ooh
 [(Going back to find)]
 A simpler place and time, ooh, yeah
 [(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)]
 Yeah, I'm gonna be with him [(I know you will)]
 On that midnight train to Georgia
 [(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)]
 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)]
 Ooh, he's leaving [(leaving)]
 On the midnight train to Georgia
 [(Leaving on the midnight train)], yeah, ooh y'all
 Said he's going back to find [(Going back to find)]
 Ooh, a simpler place and time, ooh y'all, uh-huh
 [(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)]
 I've got to be with him [(I know you will)]
 On that midnight train to Georgia
 [(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)]
 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)]
 For love, gonna board the midnight train to ride
 For love, gonna board, gotta board the midnight train to go
 For love, gonna board, uh huh, the midnight train to go
 My world, his world, our world, mine and his alone
 My world, his world, our world, mine and his alone
 I got to go
 I got to go
 I got to go, hey
 I got to go
 I got to go
 My world, his world, my man, his girl
 I got to go
 I got to go, oh
 I got to go
 My world, his world, our world, his girl
