Night Train - Amos Lee

I’ve been workin' on a night train

Drinkin' coffee takin' cocaine

I’m out here on my night train

Tryin' to get us safely home

Well in a little country station

Somewhere out in the midwest

I see the people out there waiting

Heart beating in my chest

And I’m thinking 'bout a woman

Who I put no one above

I’m not lookin' to replace her

Just need someone to love

While I’m out here on my night train

Drinkin' coffee takin' cocaine

I’m out here on my night train

Trying to get her safely home

Well I’m livin' in the city

Where the noise it never stops

Hammers pounding on the pavement

Whitles from traffic cops

Nobody looks you in the eye here

Walkin' 'round with clenched fists

I been searchin' for a simple place

Don’t know if it exists

Sunrise out there callin' my name

I can see her movin'

I can see her movin'

Well at a certain time of night now

I become one with the wind

Where there isn’t a beginning

And there is no end

Oh and everything is flowing

Everything is on time

I know that we’re all going

To the end of the line

And I’m out here on my night train

Drinkin' coffee takin' cocaine

I’m out here on my night train

Trying to get her safely home

Yeah I’m out here on my night train

Drinkin' coffee takin' cocaine

I’m out here on my night train

Trying to get safely home

Trying to get safely home

Trying to get safely home
