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)
