Midnight Greyhound (1967)

(Ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long)

(He:)
I'm takin' the Midnight Greyhound
A-leavin' town around 12:02 tonight
(She:)
You'd better be on that Greyhound
I found out all about you tonight
(He:)
That blonde meant nothing to me
But I know it looked all wrong
(Both:)
I gotta (you gotta) ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long

(She:)
You'd better find you a new town
Since you ran around makin' a fool out of me
(He:)
Baby, I'm packin',
And I ain't comin' back and then you'll be free
(She:)
Mama always said it, I knew I'd regret it
But you looked so big and strong
(Both:)
I gotta (you gotta) ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long

(He:)
I love you honey, have you got a little money
It's just about time to go
(She:)
Your low-down lies are thicker than flies
You two-bit Romeo
(He:)
I might as well admit it, we both know I did it
Sorry I've done you wrong
(Both:)
I gotta (you gotta) ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long

(Both:)
Midnight Greyhound leavin' town around 12:02 or 3
We'll find a new town where nobody knows a thing about you and me
Can't live with you, can't live without you
Guess I'll go along
We're gonna ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long
We're gonna ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long
We're gonna ride the Midnight Greyhound all night long...
