Well I just came up on the midnight special how about that
My car broke down in Texas she stopped dead in her tracks
Just called to tell you that I need you
Just called to tell you how I feel
I feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
Feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
Took my money on the night train what a terrible fight

I gave my promise I would be there with you by Saturday night
I wanna tell you that I need you baby

I need to tell you just how I feel
I feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
Feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
Can't say much in a phone call baby you know how it is

I have to tell you one short thing oh won't you listen to this
I want to tell you that I love you baby
I want to tell you just how I feel
I feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
Feel like some old engine lost my drivin' wheel
