Midnight Special |
| Yonder come Miss Rosie, how in the world do you know |
| Well I knows by your apron and the dress she wore |
| Umbrella on her shoulder, a piece of paper in her hand |
| Well she gonna see the governor, he turn a-lose a-my man |
| Let the midnight special, shine its light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Now when you get up in the mornin', when that big bell ring |
| You go and march to the table, and it’s the sam damn thing |
| Knives and forks are on the tabl, ain’t nothin' in my pan |
| You say anything about it, have trouble with the man |
| Let the midnight special, shine its light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Well jumpin' little Judy, she was a mighty fine girl |
| Now Judy brought jumpin' to this whole round world |
| Well she brought it in the mornin', just right before day |
| She brought me the news, that my wife was dead |
| Which started me to grievin', I done hollered and cried |
| Then I begun to worry about a been a long time |
| Let the midnight special, shine it light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Let the midnight special, ooh, shine it light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| So if you ever go to Houston, boys you better walk right |
| And you better not stagger and you better not fight |
| Sheriff Broxton will arrest you, Eddie Boone will take you down |
| And you can bet your bottom dollar, you’re penitentiary bound |
| Let the midnight special, shine it light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine it light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
| Let the midnight special, ooh, shine its light on me |
| Let the midnight special, shine its ever-lovin' light on me |
