Buddy Guy's " Heavy Love "
Midnight Train
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
Jonny Lang:
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
Buddy Guy:
There ain't
no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
comin'
down the line
Buddy Guy:
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
Jonny Lang:
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
Buddy Guy:
There ain't
no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
comin'
down the line
(guitar solo)
Buddy Guy:
So, I stood
for forty minutes
It was
rainin' and it was cold
Buddy Guy
& Jonny Lang:
When the
express broke down the track,
I did not
care where it was gonna go
Jonny Lang:
Yeah, yeah
Buddy Guy:
He said
there ain't no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
There ain't
no midnight train
comin'
down the line
(guitar solo)
