Intro
Verse 1
Mama, I'm on fire Old flame, sweet desire
Comin' on the midnight Comin' on the midnight train
Rollin' steel and thunder bring my baby back again
Verse 2
Roll on (roll on) down the line big wheels rollin' right on time
Hear that whistle blowin' hear that engine roar and whine
Take care of my baby ridin' on that Southern Streamline
Bridge
Well, I got me a letter this mornin'
Just about the break of day
Bluebird ringin' my doorbell
Rollin' my blues away
I said, Honey, Baby, we go steppin'
Long about Saturday night
We're headed down to the station
Ev'rything'll be all right
Verse 3
Honey, what's that sound? Big wheels rollin' homeward bound
See that smokestack sparkin' lightin' up the purple sky
Take care of my baby ridin' on that Southern Streamline (Oh Yeah)
Instrumental Break
Bridge
Well, I got me a letter this mornin'
Just about the break of day

Ev'rything'll be all right
Verse 4
Mama, I'm on fire old flame, sweet desire
Comin' on the midnight, Honey, let your little light shine
Rollin' steel and thunder ridin' on that Southern Streamline
Take care of my baby ridin' on that Southern Streamline
