The 'Midnight Ghost' Lyrics

The midnight ghost is roaring on its way
Goes through California up to Oakland and the bay
My travelling can be lonesome, but I'm happy 'cause I'm bound
For the bright lights and the harbour of Euges Town
I came from Carolina through Virginia's ?dash of snow?
Whisked through Arizona, Texas and New Mexico
I have no need of friendship, 'cause I have no need of pain
All I need is for to ride that ghost again

I've tried so long to be what the world expects of me
But I'm ... by this cravings to be free
The light reveals ...
But I've got everything I want on the midnight ghost

The station masters flashlight is sweeping low and wide.
seeking out the stragglers trying to hitch a free ride
I know these wound out rail yards
like I know my sun-cracked face
and I slip on board as the zipper gathers pace.
I got no lover, I have no kid, no kin
waiting on this engine rolling in.
No my only friends and help means
since we tear on up the coast
are some red wine and the rattle of the midnight ghost
