Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Well, the midnight train can come and go without him
Oh, he don't need no taxi back to town
He says he'll stay right here in the depot light
He was supposed to meet someone dear tonight
He's just sitting there thinking
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal
[Verse 2]
N.C.
No, he don't mind the rain, he never even noticed
And he don't mind the cold, it wouldn't matter anyhow
As a matter of fact, he could stay till the break of day
He don't see as he's in anybody's way
Just sittin' here thinking
Waitin' on a dark eyed gal
[Bridge]
She said she'd meet him at the station
He won't believe she'd keep him waiting
Very long, very long
[Verse 3]
N.C.
She never told him she was coming with him
Or if she only wanted to say a last farewell Fare thee well
Never was one to let him know her mind
So he just keeps hanging on now and doing his time
He's just sitting there thinking
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
N.C.
Yeah, the midnight train has come and gone without him
Oh, he don't need no taxi back to town
He says I'll just stay right here in the depot light
He was supposed to meet someone dear tonight
He's just sitting there thinking
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal
[Outro]
Yeah, he's sitting there drinking
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal
