The Midnight Special |
| Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me |
| Oh, let the midnight special shine her everlovin' light on me |
| Now you get up in the morning, you hear the ding dong ring |
| And you go marching to the table, you see the same old thing |
| Well it’s on the table, a knife a fork and the pan |
| If you say anything about it, you’re in trouble with the man |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her light on me |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her everlovin' light on me |
| Well, if you ever go to Houston, than you’d better walk right |
| And you have better not stagger and you’d better not fight |
| Because the sheriff will arrest you, he’s gonna take you down |
| And when the jury finds you guilty, you’re penitentiary bound |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her light on me |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her everlovin' light on me |
| Well, yonder comes Miss Rosie, how in the world did I know? |
| Well, I know her by her apron and the dress she wore |
| An umbrella on her shoulder, a piece of paper in her hand |
| She goes marching to the captain, she says «I want my man» |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her light on me |
| Oh let the midnight special shine her everlovin' light on me |
| Everlovin' light on me |
