The evening is lonesome babe
And the dead of night is cruel
And I recall all the things we done
Ya know I'm always loving youSometimes I think that my trains done gone
The way all old things must do
Yet I still wait for it's return
Just like I still wait for youAnd I still hear that old whipper will
I've seen the ghost of the midnight train
And I still love to walk alone
Down by the old union station in the rainNow I don't know where you are tonight
But I feel you across the miles
Am I still standing there inside your mind
Just behind a pretty smileHey babe, can ya hear that old whipper will?
Have ya seen the ghost on the midnight train?
Do you still love to go alone
Down by the old union station in the rain?
Down by the old Montgomery station in the rain
