He kept dreaming
(Dreaming)
That some day he'd be a star
(superstar, but he didn't get far)
But he sure found out the hard way,
That dreams don't [bad word] [bad word] (Dreams don't always gome [bad word]  uh huh, no, uh huh)

He's leaving
(Leaving)
On that midnight train to Georgia
(Leaving on a midnight train)
Yeah, said he's going back to find
(Going back to find)
simpler place and time
(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)
I'm gonna be with him
(I know you will)
On that midnight train to Georgia
(Leaving on a midnight train to Georgia, woo woo)
I'd rather live in his world,
(Live in his world)
Than live without him in mine
(World, world, is his and hers alone)
