Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stepped off the curb at midnight
Cadillac hummin low like a river running south
Mama's Sunday dress still hangin in the closet
Daddy's old records scratchin every doubt
I got a pocket full of loose change
And a heart that won't stay still
Every corner got a sermon
Every streetlight got a will
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on
Hold on to the rhythm
Feel it rise
Feel it rise inside you now
[Chorus]
Soul train line
Ridin through the city glow
Soul train line
Where the broken find their flow
Come on down
Come on ride the midnight show
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Ride it
Ride it
[Verse 2]
Grandma used to hum this tune
Cookin greens on a Sunday noon
Neighbors knockin through the screen door
Ain't nobody got the time to be poor
Young blood on the corner
Laces tight and head held high
If you listen close enough
You can hear the ghosts pass by
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on
Hold on to the rhythm
Feel it rise
Feel it rise inside you now
[Chorus]
Soul train line
Ridin through the city glow
Soul train line
Where the broken find their flow
Come on down
Come on ride the midnight show
[Bridge]
Every step is a telegram
Every breath is a second chance
Turn it up
Turn it up
Let the speakers teach the dance
[Chorus]
Soul train line
Ridin through the city glow
Soul train line
Where the broken find their flow
Come on down
Come on ride the midnight show
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Ride it
Ride it
[Outro]
(Hey hey)
Soul train
(Hey hey)
Soul train
