Midnight Train To Memphis
Mike Henderson, Chris Stapleton
Well, judge looked down, gave me forty days
Instead of the fine that I could not pay
Said, "Walk right, you'll soon be home
Cross the line, you'll be on your own"
Forty days of shotguns and barbed wire fences
Forty nights to sit an listen
To the midnight train to Memphis
Well now, whistle blows when the sun comes up
Hit the floor, keep your big mouth shut
Eat your breakfast on the ground
Work like hell 'til the sun goes down
Forty days of shotguns and barbed wire fences
Forty nights to sit an listen
To the midnight train to Memphis
Well now, ten for the jury, ten for the judge
Twenty more to forget my grudge
When I get to thirty nine
That's the longest day in a prisoner's mind
Forty days of shotguns and barbed wire fences
Forty nights to sit an listen
To the midnight train to Memphis
Midnight train to Memphis
Midnight train to Memphis
Oh, the midnight train to Memphis
Well, judge looked down, gave me forty days
Beh, il giudice ha abbassato lo sguardo, mi ha dato quaranta giorni
Instead of the fine that I could not pay
Invece della multa che non ho potuto pagare
Said, "Walk right, you'll soon be home
Disse, "Riga dritto, presto sarai a casa
Cross the line, you'll be on your own"
Attraversa il limite, sarai da solo"
Forty days of shotguns and barbed wire fences
Quaranta giorni di fucili e recinzioni di filo spinato
Forty nights to sit an listen
Quaranta notti per sedersi ad ascoltare
To the midnight train to Memphis
Il treno di mezzanotte per Memphis
Well now, whistle blows when the sun comes up
Bene, ora, il fischio suona quando sorge il sole
Hit the floor, keep your big mouth shut
Colpisci il pavimento, tieni la boccaccia chiusa
Eat your breakfast on the ground
Fai colazione a terra
Work like hell 'til the sun goes down
Lavora come un matto finché il sole non tramonta
Forty days of shotguns and barbed wire fences
Quaranta giorni di fucili e recinzioni di filo spinato
