Night Train to Memphis

(Beasley Smith - Marvin Hughes - Owen Bradley)



Take that night train to Memphis

Take that night train to Memphis

And when you arrive at the station

I'll be right there to meet you

I'll be right there to greed you

So don't turn down my invitation.



Hallelujah, hallelujah

I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day

Oh, we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And we'll shout hallelujah all the day.



Take that night train to Memphis

ake that night train to Memphis

You know how I'm longing to see you

Leave that 3-50-7 and arive in at eleven

Then I'll be shoutin' hallelujah.



Hallelujah, hallelujah

I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day

Oh, we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And we'll shout hallelujah all the day.

Take that night train to Memphis

Take that night train to Memphis

Tell that engineer to pull a trottle open

Keep that engine stack a smokin'

I'm not kiddin' I'm not jokin'

And I'll soon be with my girl I'm hopin'.



Hallelujah, hallelujah

I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day

Oh, we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And we'll shout hallelujah all the day...
