 I was standin' at the station
Ten to midnight in the rain
I was minding my own bidness'
Waitin' for that midnight train
Nobody in sight, starin' at my shoes
I took out my paper to find me some good news
Minding my own bidness'
When the ticket man calls my name
Yeah, yeah, babe
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
Comin' down the line
So I say, "If it ain't too much trouble
When's the local out of town?"
His reply is "Two a.m."
If I'm leavin' local-bound
I can catch it in forty minutes
If I want to grab the espress'
But the local trains are hard to come by
This time of night, more or less
Listen, said
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
Comin' down the line
(Yeah!)
So I stood for forty minutes
It was raining and it was cold
When the express rolled down the track
I did not care where it was gonna go
Yeah, yeah,
He said
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
There ain't no midnight train
Comin' down the line
