Midnight Special

[00:08.49] Yonder comin' Miss Rosie
[00:11.67] How in the world do you know?
[00:15.27] Well, I know by her apron and the dress she wore
[00:20.98] Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand
[00:28.07] "Well, I'm goin' and ask the governor he turn a-loose my man"
[00:33.03] Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me
[00:39.51] Oh, let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[00:45.46] When you gets up in the mornin', when that big bell ring
[00:51.95] You go to marchin' to the table, meet the same damn thing
[00:56.88] Knife and fork are on the table, there's nothing in my pan
[01:03.46] And if you say anything about it, you have a trouble with the man
[01:08.39] Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me
[01:14.43] Oh, let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[01:20.18] Well, I went into the nation and the territo
[01:26.33] Well, I thought about the girl I love, in that Mexico
[01:31.19] Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me
[01:37.25] Let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[01:43.94] If you ever go to Houston
[01:46.78] Boy, you better walk right
[01:49.97] And you better not squabble, and you better not fight
[01:54.86] Benson Crocker will arrest you, Jimmy Boone will take you down
[02:00.97] You can bet your bottom dollar, penitentiary bound
[02:06.07] Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me
[02:12.15] Let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[02:17.66] Well, jumpin' Little Judy, she was a mighty fine girl
[02:23.62] Well, Judy brought jumpin' to this whole round world
[02:28.19] Well, she brought it in the mornin', just a while before day
[02:34.13] She brought me the news that my wife was dead
[02:39.06] That started me to grievin', whoopin', hollerin', and cryin'
[02:45.15] And I began to worry about a great long time
[02:49.28] Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me
[02:55.24] Let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[03:02.13]
