Roy Acuff - Night Train to Memphis lyrics

Take that Night Train To Memphis

Take that Night Train To Memphis

And when you arrive at the station

I'll be right there to meet you

I'll be right there to greet you

So don't turn down my invitation.

CHORUS

Halle-lu-jah! [Halle-lu-jah!]

Halle-lu-jah! [Halle-lu-jah!]

We'll be shoutin' hallelu-jah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis, Tennessee

And we'll shout halle-lu-jah all the way.

Take that Night Train To Memphis

Take that Night Train To Memphis

You know how I'm longin' to see you

Leave at three-fifty-seven; arrive at eleven

And I'll be shoutin' "Halle-lu-jah!"

CHORUS

Take that Night Train To Memphis

Take that Night Train To Memphis

Tell that engineer to pull the throttle open

Keep that engine stack a-smokin',

I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin'

I'll soon be with my girl, I'm hopin'.

CHORUS
