I just came up on a midnight special, how about that
My car broke down in Texas, stopped dead in her tracks
I just called to tell you that I want you
I want to tell you how I feel

Chorus

I feel like some old engine
Lost my drivin' wheel
Repeat chorus

I took my money on a night train north, what a terrible 
flight
But I made my promise to be there with you on Saturday 
night
I just called to tell you that I need you
I need to tell you how I feel

Chorus

You can't say much in a phone call baby, ah you know how 
it is
But there's one short little thing I've got to say girl, 
please listen to this
I called to tell you that I love you
I'd love to tell you how I feel

Chorus
