"Memphis Train" lyrics
"Memphis Train"
(originally by Rufus Thomas)
(One, two
One, two, three...)
Ay!
It's a Memphis train, now
(Ooh, whee
The Memphis train)
That's right, baby
(Ooh, whee
The Memphis train)
Here we come
(Ooh, whee)
Ha, the Memphis train
(Ooh, whee)
The Memphis train
Now
I say
Train number one is gone
Train number two is gone
Train number three is been gone
How long must I wait for you
Come on, come on, come on
Hey!
Uh, shut down, baby
(Ooh)
Time I laid my handkerchief on the floor
I'm getting ready to crawl, yeah
I'm getting down on my knees
I'm getting ready to crawl
Ooh, whee
The Memphis train
Ooh, whee
The Memphis train
Train number one is gone
Train number two is gone
Train number three is been gone
How long must I wait for you
Oh, the Memphis train
Oh, the Memphis train
Yeah!
Tell me, tell me
How long must I wait for you?
Tell me, babe
How long must I wait for you?
Tell me, tell me now
How long must I wait for you?
Ha, well
How long, how long, how long, how long, how long, how long
Oh
The Memphis train
Ah, ah
Ooh, whee
The Memphis train
Train number three is gone
Oh, the Memphis train
Come on, come on
Oh, the Memphis train
Alright, let's go
Here we go
Hey, hey
Come on
(Oooh)

Warren Haynes - "River's Gonna Rise" Darkness hides the faces
Of we who hold the power
We don't need to be rich
We only need to be free
Chains of oppression
Never gonna break
But a day will come when we hold the key
Time will remind us...
James McMurtry - "Forgotten Coast" Down the highway South I'll go
Wewahitchka to Port St. Joe
I'm gonna walk the beach with a pirate's ghost
We'll haunt that old forgotten coast
I'm gonna trade my car and change my name
Put Wesson...

How I wish, you was mine

You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine

I'm so glad, I love you
Honey, I'll be your love...
Marc Cohn - "Fallen Angels" Baby baby, the time is at hand
I tell you one thing that you'll understand
Been a long time looking for something strong
Oh baby it ain't gonna be that long

Natalie Merchant - "Carnival" I've walked these streets
A virtual stage
It seemed to me
Make up on their faces
Actors took their
Places next to me
I've walked these streets
In a carnival
Of sights to see
All the cheap thrill...
