Midnight Train
Copyright @2024 Charles McDaniel 

I’m on a midnight train, 
rollin’ on own the line,  
Left my baby cryin', 
but I ain’t got the time.  
Whiskey on my breath, 
trouble on my mind,  
Ain’t no salvation, 
no redemption to find.

Oh, the devil’s in my shoes, 
can’t shake these city blues,  
I’m runnin’ wild with 
nothing left to lose.  
With the night as my guide, 
and the moon in my eyes,  
I’m on that midnight train, 
where the wild heart lies.

So kiss me goodbye, 
don’t you dare shed a tear,  
I’m bound for the unknown, 
where the road ain’t clear.  
On that midnight train, 
I’ll find my way,  
Where the wild heart roams, 
and the restless stay.

Midnight Train

Locket

[Verse]
They killed the golden goose
They sold the Holy Grail
You tell me the news
You know, I can't stand it
The country's gone to hell
The world's in a panic
Our leaders have failed

[Chorus]
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
That's inside of you
Where did it go?
The land that I love, the people I know
The people we know
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
It's living in you and me

[Verse]
Oh, say, can you see
That star-spangled banner
Still waving free
We're still the greatest country
That's ever been
But we gotta come together
And make it great again

[Chorus]
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
That's inside of you
Where did it go?
The land that I love, the people I know
The people we know
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
It's living in you and me

[Bridge]
We got heart, we got soul
Where did it go?

[Chorus]
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
That's inside of you
Where did it go?
The land that I love, the people I know
The people we know
Where did it go?
That American dream, that American spirit
It's living in you and me

Musician, Artist, Entrepreneur, Small Business Owner

I have been creating original music since 1991. Played in a few bands that I put together over the years and made the scene off and on. I still get out and jam now and then but the studio is where most of my time is being spent and for a long time now. I really enjoy when playing multiple instruments and being in full control of the process and the outcome. There is a variety of music styles to check out and listen to on this profile. Skip around odds are you will find something that interest you and hopefully captures your imagination. All songs posted are original works created by the musician and artist Charles McDaniel. this is just a small portion of over 300 original songs and music beds in my cache oh and there are three cover songs posted here as well. Let me know if you like anything. all feedback is good. enjoy and thanks for stopping in.

Music is mans ability to time travel- enjoy. The original - Charles McDaniel
