Just came up on the midnight special
Hey, how 'bout that 
My car broke down in Texas 
she stopped dead in her tracks
Just called to tell you that I need you 
Just called to tell you how I feel
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel 
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
They took my money on the night train north 
What a terrible thing 
I gave my promise that I will be there with you 
by Saturday night
I want to tell you that I need you 
I need to tell you how I feel
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel 
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
You can't say much in a phone call, babe 
You know how it is
I have to tell you one sure thing 
Oh, won't you listen to this
I want to tell you that I love you, babe 
I want to tell you just how I feel
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel 
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel 
Some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
