Well, you wake up in the morning
and hear the ding dong ring
And you march down to breakfast
an d see the same darn thing
Knife and fork on the table,
bread and butter in the pan
And if you say a thing about it, Lord,
you in trouble with the man
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the light on me
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the devil of a light on me
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the light on me
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the devil of a light on me
Now if you ever go to Houston,
well you better walk straight
And you better not stagger,
you better not start a fight
Cause the sheriff will come and get you,
and he'll throw you in the camp
And if you say a thing about it, Lord,
you'll be trouble with the man
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the ever -loving light on me
I'll let the Midnight Special
shine the light on me
I'll let the Midnight Spe cial
shine a terrible lovin' light on me
Well yonder comes Missy Rosie,
ask me how I know
Well I can tell Missy Rosie,
I can tell her by the dress she wore
Gonna bring a little coffee,
gonna bring a little tea
Gonna bring a little
hella thing
but you'd never bring the
jailhouse key
Let the midnight special
shine a light on me
Well, the midnight spe cial
shine
a terrible lovin' light on me
Oh, let the midnight special
shine a light on me
Oh, let the midnight special
shine a terrible lovin' light on me
Oh, let the midnight special
Shine its ever -loving light on me
Oh, let the midnight special
Shine its ever -loving light on me
Well, let the midnight special shine
Its ever -loving light on me
Yes! Thank you.
