Midnight Special

Lyrics

Well i wake up in the morning heard the ding dong ring
 You go and matching to the table you see the same old thing
 Baby all I wanna tell you a knife a forking and a pan and if you say a thing about it
 You are in trouble with the man
 Let the midnight special, shine a light on me
 Let the midnight special, shine an ever lovin' light on me
 (Yes) let the midnight special, shine a light on me
 Let the midnight special, shine an ever lovin' light on me
 If you ever go to Houston
 Then, you better walk aright
 You better not stagger and you better not fight or the sheriff Benson will arrest you
 He will carry you down and if the jury find your guilty you're penitentiary bound
 So let the midnight special
 Shine as light on me
 Let the midnight special
 Shine it ever lovin' light on me
 ♪
 I yonder comes Miss Rosie how I wonder did you know
 Ah well, I know her by her apron and the dress she wore
 Umbrella on her shoulder piece of paper in her hand
 She's goes a walk in to the captain and says i'm loosing my man
 So Let the midnight special
 Shine it light on me
 Let the midnight special
 Shine it ever lovin' light on me
 Let the midnight special
 Shine it light on me
 Let The midnight special
 Shine it ever lovin' light on let the midnight special
 Shine as light on me
 I'am Let the special
 Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
