L.A. proved too much for the girl
So she’s leavin’ the life she’s come to know
She’s goin’ back to find what’s left in the world
The world she left behind not so long ago
She’s leavin’ on the midnight train to Georgia
She’s going’ back, she’s goin’ back to a simpler place and time
And I’ll be with her on that midnight train to Georgia
I’d rather live in her world than live without her in mine
She kept dreamin’, someday she’d be a star
But she found out the hard way some dreams don’t come true
So she pawned all her hopes, even sold the own car
She bought a one-way ticket back to the life that she once knew
She’s leavin’ on the midnight train to Georgia
She’s goin’ back, she’s going back to a simpler place and time
And I’ll be with her on that midnight train to Georgia
I’d rather live in her world than live without her in mine
Yes I’ll be with her on that midnight train to Georgia
I’d rather live in her world than live without her in mine
Yes I would
