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
