	Story Behind the Song This song was written almost 4 years ago. At that time I was trying to write songs that had incorporated some sort of a blues flavor. The main rhythm/groove was the beginning of the creation of the song, and then the lyrics followed shortly afterwords. Once this groove was set, it was apparent that it was about a train moving along the tracks. I think the slide guitar that my guitarist has added totally completes it and gives it that blues sound that I had always wanted, along with the bass parts and drums, that flow right along with the rhythm of the guitar. Midnight Tracks symbolizes an "escape" vehicle, jumping on that train and never coming back. I love the image of an empty station at night and the lonely sounds of a train whistle blowing as it pulls up on the tracks. This is what I had hoped to capture with this song. - Gina Lyrics Steam train is running Echoes through the downtown streets Pure anticipation About where I want to be Roll on down Gonna ride On those midnight tracks Gonna ride On those midnight tracks Well I've been waiting so long To be on that golden path Yes, I've been waiting so long And I won't be coming back Cause I'll be Rolling down, on the midnight track Pushing and pulling to get on my way Tripping and falling I get up again Kneeling and praying I make this midnight train Strong determination Is going to put me on this Moving liberation Won't you roll me Won't you roll me Roll me, roll me, roll me On down On those midnight tracks Said I'm gonna ride On those midnight tracks Oh Lord above me Gonna deliver me On those midnight tracks
