LEAVING ON A MIDNIGHT TRAIN (Pete Ham)
[from "7 Park Avenue" CD]

Leaving on a train, on a midnight train

'Cos the airplane's going too fast

Getting out of town on account of you

'Cos of all the things that you make me do

Packing all my bags on a midnight train

'Cos I want the journey to last

Packing all my bags on account of you

'Cos of all the things that you're making me do


Leaving on a midnight train, oh yeah

Leaving on a midnight train

Babe, you're causing so much pain, yeah yeah

Leaving on a midnight train, yeah


Leaving on a train, on a midnight train

'Cos the airplane's going too fast

Getting out of town on account of you

'Cos of all the things that you make me do

Packing all my bags on a midnight train

'Cos I want the journey to last

Packing all my bags on account of you

'Cos of all the things that you're making me do


Leaving on a midnight train, oh yeah

Leaving on a midnight train, yeah

Babe, you're causing so much pain, yeah yeah

Leaving on a midnight train, yeah yeah, ooooo


[guitar solo]


Leaving on a midnight train, oh yeah

Leaving on a midnight train

Babe, you're causing so much pain, yeah


Leaving on a midnight train (repeat softly and fade).
