Night Train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis, take that night train to Memphis
I'll meet you down at the station
I'll be right there to meet you, I'll be right there to greet you
So don't turn down my invitation
CHORUS
Hallelujah (hallelujah), hallelujah (hallelujah)
We'll be shoutin' hallelujah, all the day (all the way!)
Oh, we'll have a jubilee (where?) down in Memphis, Tennessee
And we'll shout hallelujah, all the day
Take that night train to Memphis, take that night train to Memphis
You know I'm longing to see you
Leave at three-fifty-seven and arrive by eleven
And I'll be shoutin' hallelujah
CHORUS
Take that night train to Memphis, take that night train to Memphis
Tell that engineer to pull the throttle open
Well, keep that engine stack a-smokin', I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin'
I'll soon be with my girl, I'm hopin'
CHORUS
CHORUS
TAG
Well, we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis, Tennessee
And I'll shout hallelujah, all the day
