Вступление
(Suzy Elkins - Robert Field)
[Intro]
[Verse]
There's a morning train
Headed for New Orleans
Carrying business men
and week day shoppers
I got sixteen bucks
I got a dollar and change
That's not bad price for a one way ride
On a morning train
I give you my devotion
You left me heartsick
Oh, you couldn't had hurt me more
Not workin' with a night stick
Now I'm tired of sharin'
this bed of nails
So come first light I'm gonna be right
With the mornin' train
[Chorus]
So goodbye lover, I'm goin' undercover
Crescent City's gonna swallow me
Skip my ring 'cross the Mississippi River
When it sinks, well I won't' feel a thing
When it sinks, well I won't feel a thing
[Verse]
Oh well I'm gonna be stayin'
With a short time acquaintance
When I met him he was playin'
On the Gulf Breeze Circuit
He didn't play no hit songs
or TV themes
He's a guitar man just a hired hand
From a local band
[Chorus]
So goodbye lover, I'm goin' undercover
Crescent City's gonna swallow me
Skip my ring 'cross the Mississippi River
When it sinks, well I won't' feel a thing
When it sinks, well I won't feel a thing
The whistles blowin' clear and loud
[Interlude]
[Verse]
Now when I hit the station
I'll take a taxi to the corner
I'm gonna meet him by a street car
Name of what-cha-ma-call-it
And my imagination
Won't let us miss a thing
Cause life's gonna be fine when I leave him behind
On that mornin' train
[Chorus]
So goodbye lover, I'm goin' undercover
Crescent City's gonna swallow me
Skip my ring 'cross the Mississippi River
When it sinks, well I won't' feel a thing
When it sinks, well I won't feel a thing
[Outro]
