Midnight Special

Well well well well well

Wake up early in the morning

In the ding-dong ring

Coming walking to the table

I see the same damn thing

Knife and fork upon the table

Piece of paper in my hand

Nothing I can do about it

I'll get in trouble with the man

Let the midnight special

Shine the light on me

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever loving light on me

If you ever go to Houston

You better act right

You better not gamble

And you better not fight

Because the Sheriff will arrest you

And he'll carry you down

If they go and find you guilty

You're penitentiary bound

Let the midnight special

Shine the light on me

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever loving light on me

Wake up early in the morning

In the ding-dong ring

Coming walking to the table

I see the same damn thing

Knife and fork upon the table

Piece of paper in my hand

Nothing I can do about it

I'll get in trouble with the man

Let the midnight special

Shine the light on me

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever loving light on me

Let the midnight

Well if you ever get to Houston

You better act right

You better not gamble

And you better not fight

Because the Sheriff will arrest you

And he'll carry you down

If they go and find you guilty

Will you be Sugarland bound

Let the midnight special

Shine this light on me

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever loving light on me

Yes, let the midnight special

Shine the light on me

Let the midnight special

Shine its ever loving light on me
