Midnight Train (2021 Remastered Version) - Johnny Burnette
I left my gal sad and lonely
Left her standing in the rain
I went down to the railroad
I caught myself a midnight train
I beat my way into Texas
Landed in a gambling town
I got myself into trouble
I shot the county sheriff down
Oh Lord I shot the county sheriff down
They put the handcuffs on me
Tied me with a ball and chain
They took me to El Paso
They tied me with a ball and chain
These prisonbars all around me
No-one to call my bail
My heart's sad and so lonely
Couse I want to get out of this jail
Oh Lord I want to get out of this jail
The jury read the verdict
Murder in the first degree
The judge said take this prisoner to the penitentiary
They put the handcuffs on me
Tied me with a ball and chain
I'd left my home forever and I'll never see my gal again
Oh Lord I'll never see my gal again
