Ridin' That Midnight Train

1
No matter what I say or do
4 1
You’re never satisfied
 
I’ve tried I’ve tried so many times
5 1
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
