Lyrics:

I received a message from my brother 'cross the water
He sat laughin' as he wrote, "The end's in sight"
So I said goodbye to all my friends and packed my hopes inside a matchbox
'Cause I know it's time to fly

Oh-oh-oh-hoh, yeah, come on, meet me in the mornin'
Meet me in the middle of the night
Ah-ow, yeah, the mornin' light is comin'
Don't it make ya wanna kinda feel alright

Ooh, yeah, ah-hah

I just jumped a train that never stops
So now somehow they'll know I'll never finish payin' for my ride
Someone push the gun into my hand
Tell me I'm the type of man to fight the fight that I'll require

Oh-oh-oh-hoh, yeah, ha, come on, meet me in the mornin'
Won't you meet me in the middle of the night, night, night, yeah
Hoh-oh, well, the mornin' light is comin'
Well, don't it make you wanna kinda feel alright

Oh, mama, well, I think it's time I'm leavin'
Nothin' here to make me stay
A-whoa, mama, well it must be time I'm goin'
They're knockin' down them doors, they're tryin to take me away

Please, Mr. Brakeman, won'tcha ring your bell
Well, ring it loud and clear
Uh, please, Mr. Fireman, won'tcha ring your bell
Tell the people they got to fly away from here

Ooh, I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Somethin' made her have a very, very special smile
We are in the middle of a change in destination
When the train stops, altogether we will smile

Oh-oh-oh-hoh, come on, come on, now, meet me in the mornin'
Won'tcha meet me in the middle of the night, night, n-ni-ni-night, hoh, hoh, yeah
Everybody know the mornin' time is comin'
Don't it make ya wanna feel alright
Ah, ah, yeah, make me feel alri-ight
Fly now, baby
A-get to flyin', fly now baby
Uhh-ay, hey, hey, uh
Uh, uh, uh
