[Chorus]
Night train, night train
Whoa, catch me a night train, take me a ride
Haul me on over to the other side
She said she loved me, I believe she lied
I'm long gone now, got me a night train ride

[Verse 1]
Well, I stopped in Denver, ate some scrambled eggs
She smelled my breath, I saw her legs
Shot some craps, some dice, some dope
Don't ask me to tell you if you don't know

[Chorus]
Night train, night train
Whoa, catch me a night train, take me a ride
Haul me on over to the other side
She said she loved me, I believe she lied
I'm long gone now, got me a night train ride

[Verse 2]
I hit the streets, and then the skids
I didn't get drunk, and then I did
At 4 AM I found an alley I knew
I left one bottle and I left one shoe
[Chorus]
Night train, night train
Whoa, catch me a night train, take me a ride
Haul me on over to the other side
She said she loved me, I believe she lied
I'm long gone now, got me a night train ride

[Verse 3]
So I blew that town, I was on a roar
I felt my teeth, the pain, the gore
I loved a woman and I loved a horse
Down in Santa Fe
Ain't it funny now, as time goes by
I remember the horse's name

[Chorus]
Night train, night train
Whoa, catch me a night train, take me a ride
Haul me on over to the other side
She said she loved me, I believe she lied
I'm long gone now, got me a night train ride

[Verse 4]
Oh, paper moons and pretty pies
Movin' on down the line
Through the wind and through the rain
Takin' that old night train ride
Takin' the night train ride
Night train
[Verse 5]
Now I'm goin', I don't know where
But I know that night train will still be there
When I need a ride, catch it night or day
Old Mr. Night Train headin' our way

[Chorus]
Night train, night train
Whoa, catch me a night train, take me a ride
Haul me on over to the other side
She said she loved me, I believe she lied
I'm long gone now, got me a night train ride
