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

Hallelujah hallelujah I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day

Oh we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis Tennessee

And shout hallelujah all the day

[ ac.guitar ]

Take that night train to Memphis take that night train to Memphis

You know that I'm longing to see you

Leave the 3-50-7 arive at eleven shout hallelujah all the way

Hallelujah hallelujah...

[ ac.guitar ]

Take that night train to Memphis take that night train to Memphis

Engineer pull a trottle open

Keep that engine stack a smokin' I'm not kiddin' I'm not jokin'

Soon I'll be with my girl I'm a hopin'

Hallelujah hallelujah...

And shout hallelujah all the day
