Time for Travelin'
I came into AtlantaDreamin' of LorraineCame so tired of ridin'Cross the Savanna PlainStill feel the wheels a-rollin'Feel them just the sameSteel wheels still a-rollin'On a long night train.She met me at the stationTook me to her roomWas a time of meetingWas a risin' moon.Angels set the tableWith candles and beer.Heard that midnight train moanMiles away from here.Lay me down a pallet,Lay it soft and low.Lorraine lay beside me,Sad I had to go.Gypsy boy I traveled withPlayed his old guitar.We watched that candle flickerSongtexteLike some low morning starBut the time to part must always comeTime the bells must ring.Time for lovers to say goodnightI'll see you in my dreams.Time to part must always comeTime when trade-winds sing.Time to hit the road againTime for travelin'.
