Ricky Nelson - Night Train to Memphis lyrics

rate me

(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.

--- Instrumental ---

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.

--- Instrumental ---

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.
