No matter what I say or do
You’re never satisfied
I’ve tried I’ve tried so many times
I’m leaving you now goodbye
I’m riding on that midnight train
My head’s a-hangin’ low
These awful blues will follow me
Wherever I may go
Oh why on Earth was I ever born
I’ll never understand
To fall in love with a woman like you
In love with another man
You broke a heart that trusted you
Why wasn’t it made of stone
I’m left in a world black as night
Yet I must travel on
[1] No matter what I say or do
You’re [4] never [1] satisfied
I’ve tried I’ve tried so many times
I’m leaving you [5] now [1] goodbye
I’m riding on that midnight train
My head’s a-hangin’ low
These awful blues will follow me
Wherever I may go
Oh why on Earth was I ever born
I’ll never understand
To fall in love with a woman like you
In love with another man
You broke a heart that trusted you
Why wasn’t it made of stone
I’m left in a world black as night
Yet I must travel on
