((G) Take that Night Train To Memphis  
Take that (C) Night Train To Memphis 
And (G) when you arrive at the (D7) station

I'll be (C) right there to greet you 
So (G) don't turn (D7) down my invi-(G) tation. 
 
CHORUS 
Halle-(C) lu-jah! Halle-lu-jah! 
Halle-(G) lu-jah! Halle-lu-jah!   
We'll be shoutin' hallelu-jah all the (D7) day 
Oh we'll (G) have a jubilee  
Down in (C) Memphis, Tennessee 
And we'll (G) shout halle-(D7) lu-jah all the (G) way. 
 
Take that Night Train To Memphis  
Take that Night Train To Memphis 
You know how I'm longin' to see you 
Leave at three-fifty-seven; arrive at eleven 
And I'll be shoutin' "Halle-lu-jah!" 
 
CHORUS 
 
Take that Night Train To Memphis  
Take that Night Train To Memphis 
Tell that engineer to pull the throttle open 
Keep that engine stack a-smokin',  
I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin' 
I'll soon be with my girl, I'm hopin'.
