Night Train to Memphis

Night Train to Memphis - Roy Acuff

Written by：Dorrell McGowan/Stuart E. McGowan

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

Halleluiah halleluiah

I'll be shouting halleluiah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And I'll shout halleluiah all the way

Take that night train to Memphis

Take that night train to Memphis

You know how I'm longing to see you

Leave at three-fifty-seven

And arrive at eleven

Then I'll be shouting halleluiah

Halleluiah halleluiah

I'll be shouting halleluiah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And I'll shout halleluiah all the way

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 smoking

I'm not kidding I'm not joking

And I'll soon be with my girl I'm hoping

Halleluiah halleluiah

I'll be shouting halleluiah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And I'll shout halleluiah all the way

Halleluiah halleluiah

I'll be shouting halleluiah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee

Down in Memphis Tennessee

And we'll shout halleluiah all the way
