Midnight Train Lyrics - Buddy's Baddest: The Best Of Buddy Guy - Buddy Guy

I was standin' at the station, 

ten to midnight in the rain 

I was mindin' my own bus'ness, 

waiting for that midnight train 

Nobody in sight, starin' at my shoes, 

I took out my paper to find me some good news 

Mindin' my own bus'ness, 

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: "Two a.m." 

If I'm leavin' local-bound 

I can catch it in forty minutes, 

if I want to grab the express 

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

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
