D  

Mama, I'm on fire 
Old flame, sweet desire 
G 
Comin' on the midnight 
                       D 
Comin' on the midnight train 
A 
Rollin' steel and thunder 
G             A7    D 
Bring my baby back again 
 
Verse 2: 
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: 
                             G 
Well, I got me a letter this mornin' 
                        D 
Just about the break of day 
                    G 
Bluebird ringin' my doorbell 
A7                D 
Rollin' my blues away 
                           G 
I said, Honey, we're goin' steppin' 
                    D 
Long about Saturday night 
                         G 
We're headed down to the station 
A7                   D 
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 
 
(instrumental) 
 
(bridge) 
 
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
