MIDNIGHT FLYER

KATE WOLF

Tonalité :

In the dark I hear the whistle the rumble of the cars

The l onesome midnight flyer p ast the late night bars

P ulling sixty box-cars and h eading through our town

T earing up the night with a l ong lonesome sound

I t's been a long year since I t hought about the train

The g reyhound and the highway t ook me where I've been

L ate at night I hear the sound the h umming of the rails

The l onesome midnight flyer taking h igh wind in her sails

H ere comes the midnight flyer

S et your watches by her

W heels rolling coming in on t ime

N o one pays her no mind n o one hears her crying

'Cept s ome old man bumming down the l ine

H ere comes the midnight flyer tell me how do you know?

'Cause I h eard her long whistle m oan so soft and low

W heels clicking on the rails in the s tillness of the night

The e ngineer's pulling cord unt il he gets it right

S he's rolling through the back yards the s leepers in the night

On the o utskirts of town h eadlight burning bright

And she's p ulling sixty box-cars and an other railroad bum

Who h eard her whistle blow and c aught her on the run

H ere comes the midnight flyer

S et your watches by her

W heels rolling coming in on t ime

N o one pays her no mind n o one hears her crying

'Cept s ome old man bumming down the l ine
