Well i was hidin' from the sun once again
i was runnin' from time my friend
i'd lost another war
so i poured one more
and i went home drunk again.
She was up when the key hit the lock
and the clock looked at me just like the devil in disguise,
i saw it in her eyes
she'd be gone before the evenin',
So i poured another strong one
and chopped the line from here to texas
'cause i've lost another good one
she's on the midnight train to memphis
With a brand new start
i swore i'd love from the heart
i meant to change my ways
but i've seen better days
then the one that's here this mornin'
mmm,hmm

with a wife and kids at home
a job some where on some assembly line
i wish i had that life
i'll bet you wish you had mine

so lets pour another tall one
and chop the line from here to texas
'cause i've lost another good one
she's on the midnight train to memphis
"dude what station is this k-snooze? kid rock, i thought he's the americian badass and he's putin me to sleep, nudge me if he gets over five decibles, i knew his first album was a good one."
But thats the way i am
and this is how i jam
all across the land
from alabam
to bandstand
Doped up rebel with an attitude "shit"
so fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch.
I won't switch no quitin, no vices
flip the script cause i'ma slice the righteous
havn't you heard i'm goin reframe
free as a biird so i won't change
Livin it up, givin it up, fuckin shit up
what!
I'ma run my track from the gee to nantuckit
so fuck it if you don't dig that you can suckit
yeah!
and it don't (eco)
hay!
With an old suitcase
i swere i'll leave this place
and get you back in time
cant drink you off my mind
so i'll see you when i'm sober
i been lookin for some reasons
but i ain't found one down in texas
i've been changin with the seasons
walkin a new line back to memphis!
