Going down Louisiana, going down on the midnight train

Going down Louisiana, going down on the midnight train

Gonna leave it all behind me, and I ain't going back again

Gonna find me a woman cut loose this ball and chain

Gonna find me a woman cut loose this ball and chain

Gonna love her 'til the morning then do it all again

Gotta keep on turning, gotta keep those wheels going

Round and round

And I ain't got no use for what you call the truth

I'm looking for a way to find some solid ground
