Well you woke up in the morning
|
hear the big bell ring,
|
you go marching to the table
|
see the same damn thing
|
Well its on a one table
|
knife and fork and a pan
|
And if you say a thing about it
|
youre in trouble with the man
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine her light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine her ever
|
lovin light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine her ever
|
lovin light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine her ever
|
lovin light on me
|
If you ever go to Houston
|
youd better walk right
|
and you better not stagger
|
and you better not fight
|
Cause the sheriff will
|
arrest you
|
and hell carry you down
|
and you can bet your bottom
|
dollar youre Sugarl and bound
|
so Let the Midnight Special
|
shine her light on me
|
Let the Minding Special
|
shine her ever lovin
|
light on me
|
<interlude>
|
Yonder come miss Rosie
|
how in the world did you know?
|
By the way she wears her apron
|
and the clothes she wore
|
Umbrella on her shoulder
|
piece of paper in her hand
|
She come to see the govnor
|
she wants to free her man
|
so Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a everlovin light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a light on me
|
Let the Midnight Special
|
shine a light on me
|
