Lyrics The Midnight Special 2002 - Mischief Brew

The Midnight Special 2002

Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special shine her ever loving light on me
Well, you wake up in the morning
And it’s the same old thing
Dehumanization
By the inhumane
The warden’s dog is treated better
And I can’t take it no more
Think it’s time to turn some pages
No more to study war
Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special shine her ever loving light on me
If you’re gonna run for office
Then it’s TV time
Before you bet your soul’s service
Let’s talk about crime
Say I’ll sweep them in the prisons
Whether they’re sixty or tens
Politicians throw a party
When they’re put to death
Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special shine her ever loving light on me
It’s a billion dollar business
It’s a booming field
It’s a good stock invest
Such booming years
Positions in the corporations
Jobs down in old Steeltown
Seems like everybody’s happy
'Cept those locked up and locked down
Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special shine her ever loving light on me
