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
