Midnight flyer
Take me to L.A
Midnight flyer
Take me to L.A

There'll be a whole lot of kissing
When I jump off that Santa Fe

Midnight flyer
Roll on down the track
Midnight flyer
Roll on down the track

The quicker I get there
The sooner I'll get her back

A pocket full of money
A heart full of pain
I won't be myself
Until I see her again

Take me to L.A
Midnight flyer
Take me to L.A

There'll be a whole lot of loving
When I jump off that Santa Fe

A pocket full of money
A heart full of pain
I won't be myself
Until I see her again

I got a whole lot of dust
On my dancing shoes
And I've got a lot of loving
That I haven't used

Nat “King” Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (17 March 1919 – 15 February 1965) was born in Montgomery, Alabama and used the stage name Nat “King” Cole throughout his career as a jazz pianist and later as a singer.

Cole’s first mainstream hit was “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Bo Diddley, who performed similar folk-based material said that song was a big influence on him.

In the late 40s, Cole began recording more pop-oriented material. His stature as a pop singer was cemented by hits like “Route 66”, “Mona Lisa” and “Unforgettable”. In the 50s, virtually every home had a copy of his Christmas album.
