Kenny Rogers - Midnight flyer

Oo, Midnight Flyer

Engineer, won't you let your whistle moan?

Oo, Midnight Flyer

I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on

A runaway team of horses ain't enough to make me stay

So throw your rope on another man

And pull him down your way

Make him into someone who can take the place of me

Make him every kind of fool you wanted me to be

Oo, Midnight Flyer

Engineer, won't you let your whistle moan?

Oo, Midnight Flyer

I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on

Maybe I'll go to Santa Fe, maybe San Antone

Any town is where I'm bound any way to get me gone

Don't think about me, never let me cross your mind

'Cept when you hear that midnight lonesome whistle whine

Oo, Midnight Flyer

Engineer, won't you let your whistle moan?

Oo, Midnight Flyer

I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on

I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on
