Midnight Special Lyrics

Let the midnight special

Let the midnight special

Shine its light on me

Shine a light on me,

Let the midnight special

Let the midnight...

Shine its ever-loving light on me

Ever loving light on me. 

Yonder come miss Rosey,

How in the world do you know,

How in the world do you know ?

Well, I know her by her apron

And the dress she wore.

Umbrella on her shoulder,

A piece of paper in her hand,

She gonna tell old John

She want back her man,

She want back her man. 

Let the midnight special

Let the midnight special

Shine its light on me

Shine a light on me.

Let the midnight special

Let the midnight...

Shine its ever-loving light on me

Ever loving light on... 

If you ever go to Houston,

Yeah, you better walk right,

You'd better not gamble

And sure thing better not fight.

The next thing you know

The sheriff gonna arrest you

And some judge send you down

And you can bet your bottom dollar

Lord, you'll be chaingang bound,

Chaingang bound. 

Let the midnight special

Let the midnight

Shine its light on me

Shine, shine, shine, shine,

Let the midnight special

Shine on,

Shine its ever-loving light on me

Shine on me, yeah. 

Let the midnight special

Shine, shine, shine,

Shine its light on me

Shine, shine on me,

Let the midnight special

Way into midnight,

Shine its ever-loving light on me

Way into midnight, baby,

Let the midnight special

Waah...
