Twenty Five To Midnight - Hit Crew Masters

Train I ride don't be slow

If your whistle can blow

Fifteen miles down the track

Tell them I'm coming back

Counting poles counting sheep

Don't be slow I won't weep

If your wheels on the line

Were to put me on time

Just a year to the day

Since I went upon my way

To seek my fortune and fame

Be a star change my name

And that's it more or less

Til this midnight express

I know I can't be late

Cause she said she won't wait

She'll just go marry Jack

So there's no turning back

And it's 25 to midnight and fifteen miles of track

Band I had got a break

Just one chance we had to take

Told my girl I'd be back

Left her with my friend Jack

New York City for a spell

Things didn't turn out so well

Every dive that we played

We were lucky we got paid

Mr Train driver please

If your speed you increase

Every cent I have now

Will be yours this I vow

And that's it more or less

Til this midnight express

I know I can't be late

Cause she said she won't wait

She'll just go marry Jack

So there's no turning back

And it's 25 to midnight and fifteen miles of track

We called ourselves the Latino Lovers

Hawaiian shirts and top forty covers

I didn't think I could sink this low

When drugs and booze ate all my dough

This isn't how it was meant to be

There's no such thing as a meal that's free

If I was ever to get out alive

I have to get home on time

Train I ride don't be slow

If your whistle can blow

Fifteen miles down the track

Tell them I'm coming back

And that's it more or less

Til this midnight express

I know I can't be late

Cause she said she won't wait

She'll just go marry Jack

So there's no turning back

And it's 25 to midnight and fifteen miles of track

And it's 25 to midnight and fifteen miles of track
