Doc Watson — Riding That Midnight Train

[Verse 1] No matter what I say or do You're never satisfied I've tried to please you too many times So I'm leavin' you now, goodbye [Chorus] Ridin' on that midnight train Lord, my head's a-hangin' low These awful blues will follow me Wherever I may go [Verse 2] Why on earth was I ever born? I'll never understand To fall in love with a girl like you Who's in love with another man [Chorus] Ridin' on that midnight train Lord, my head's a-hangin' low These awful blues will follow me Wherever I may go [Verse 3] You broke a heart that trusted you Why wasn't it made of stone? You've left my world as black as night And yet, I must travel on [Chorus] Ridin' on that midnight train Lord, my head's a-hangin' low These awful blues will follow me Wherever I may go
