Paroles de Midnite Train

I left my girl sad and lonely I left her standing in the rain I went down to the railroad I caught myself a midnight train I beat my way into texas I landed in a gambling town I got myself into trouble Then i shot the county sheriff down, oh lord I shot the county sheriff down They put the handcuffs on me They tied me to a ball and chain They took me to el paso They took me on a midnite train These prisonbars all around me There ain't no-one to call my bail My heart's sad and so lonely Cause i want to get out of this jail, oh lord I want to get out of this jail These prisonbars all around me There ain't no-one to call my bail My heart's sad and so lonely Cause i want to get out of this jail, oh lord I want to get out of this jail The jury read the verdict They gave me murder in the first degree The judge said, take the prisoner To the penitentiary They got the handcuffs on me They got me tied to the ball and chain I'd lost my heart forever And i'll never see my girl again, oh lord I'll never see my girl again
