Midnight Train To Memphis Lyrics

Midnight Train To Memphis lyrics

I was hiding from the sun once again 
I was running from the time my friend 
I've lost another war 
So, I poured one more and went home drunk again 
She was up when the key hit the lock 
And the clock looked at me just like the devil in disguise 
I saw it in her eyes - she'd be gone before the evenin' 

So, I poured another strong one and chopped a line from here to Texas 
Cause I've lost another good one - she's on the midnight train to Memphis 
With a brand new start, I swore I'd love from the heart 
I meant to change my ways 
But I've seen better days than the one's that's here this mornin' 
With a wife and kids at home with a job some where on some assembly line 
I wish I had that life - I bet you wish you had mine 
So, let's pour another tall one and chop a line from here to Texas 
Cause I've lost another good one - she's on the midnight train to Memphis 

[David Spade]
Dude, what station is this? K snooze? 
Kid Rock I thought he was the American bad as* 
He's putting me to sleep. Nudge me if he gets over five decibals. 
I knew his first album was a good one 

But that's the way I am 
And this is how I jam 
All across the land from Alabam to bandstand 
Doped up rebel with an attitude 
Shit 
So f**k a bit*h 
So f**k a bit*h 
So f**k a bit*h 
I won't switch won't quit my vices 
Flip the script cause I'm gonna slice the righteous 
Haven't you heard I don't refrain 
Free as a bird and so I won't change 
Livin it up Givin it up f**kin sh*t up 
What 
I'm gonna run my track from the D to Nantucket 
So f**k it - If you don't dig that, you can suck it. 

And it don't 
And it don't 

With an old suitcase, I swear I'll leave this place 
I'll get you back in time 
Can't drink you off my mind. So, I'll see you when I'm sober. 
I been looking for some reasons, but I ain't found one down in Texas 
I been changing with the seasons 
Walked in a new line back to Memphis.
