Midnight Train To Georgia Lyrics - Gladys Knight

l.a. proved too much for the man 

(too much for the man) 

(he couldn't make it) 

so he's leaving the life he's come to know 

(he said he's going) 

he said he's going back to find 

(going back to find) 

what's left of his world 

the world he left behind 

not so very long ago 

oh yeah

he's leaving 

(leaving) 

on that midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on a midnight train) 

oh yeah 

oh ya'll 

said he's going back to find 

(he's going back to find) 

a simpler place and time 

(and when he takes that ride) 

yes he is 

(guess who's gonna be right by his side) 

i'll be with him 

(i know you will) 

on that midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on a midnight train to georgia) 

(whoo whoo) 

i'd rather live in his world 

(live in his world) 

than live without him in mine 

(world, world) 

(it's his, his and hers alone) 

Photos 

he kept dreaming 

(dreaming) 

that one day he'd be a star 

(a superstar but he didn't get far) 

but he sure found out the hard way 

that dreams don't always come true 

(dreams don't always come true) 

oh no 

(uh uh no uh uh) 

so he sold all his hopes 

and he even sold his own car 

and bought a one way ticket back 

to the life that he once knew 

oh yes he did 

he said he would 

i know he's leaving 

(leaving) 

on that midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on a midnight train) 

oh yeah 

oh ya'll 

said he's going back to find 

(he's going back to find) 

a simpler place and time 

(and when he takes that ride) 

yes he is 

(guess who's gonna be right by his side) 

i've got to be with him 

(i know you will) 

on that midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on the midnight train to georgia) 

(whoo whoo) 

i'd rather live in his world 

(live in his world) 

than live without him in mine 

(world, world) 

(it's his, his and hers alone) 

he's leaving 

(he's leaving) 

on a midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on a midnight train) 

oh yeah 

he said he's going back to find 

(he's going back to find) 

a simpler place and time 

(and when he takes that ride) 

(guess who's gonna be right by his side) 

i've got to be with him 

(i know you will) 

on that midnight train to georgia 

(leaving on a midnight train to georgia) 

(whoo whoo) 

i'd rather live in his world 

(live in his world) 

than live without him in mine 

(world, world) 

(is his, his and hers alone) 

(world is his) 

(his and hers alone)
