Night Train by John Plainsong Lyrics

Desiree
Take the night train down. I miss you so. It's cold and lonely in this town. I'm tired of hiding out in cheap hotels and running place to place. Its been eight years, I don't think anyone would recognize my face

Desiree
Take the night train down. I'd come back home, but the investigator thinks I'm dead and gone. I'm happy the insurance money comes in every month. I just wish you'd come down here and maybe share it with me some

Desiree
Take the night train down. I miss you so. Its cold as bones in this ghost town. We should be lying on the beaches of Cancun just like we planned. You say there's been a change of plans but, honey, I don't understand!

Talk of the devil and the devil appears!]

[Clickety-clack-clickety clack-coming...
Smokestack lightning and the wheels are humming
Clickety-clack-clickety-clack-coming...]
