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
Gonna be right there to greet you
So don't turn down my invitation
Hallelujah (Hallelujah), 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 way
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
You know that I'm longin' to see you
Leave at three-fifty-seven, arrive at eleven
Shoutin' Hallelujah all the way
Hallelujah (Hallelujah), 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
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
Engineer, pull the throttle open
Keep that engine stack smokin'
I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin'
Soon I'll be with my girl I'm a-hopin'
Hallelujah (Hallelujah), 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
And shout Hallelujah all the day
