Ya get up in the mornin&#39;,
ya hear the ding dong ring.
Now you look upon the table.

you see the same darn thing.

You find no food upon the table,
no fork up in the pan.
But if ya say a thing about it.

ya be in trouble with the man.

Ah, let the midnight special
shine the light on me.
Oh, let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.

Now if you&#39;re ever in a&#39; Houston,
whoa, you better walk right.
Ah. you better not gamble. boy.
Ah. say. you better not fight.

Well, now the sheriff he&#39;ll grab you
and the boys&#39;ll pull you down.
And then. before you know it.

you&#39;re penitentiary bound.

Ah, let the midnight special
shine the light on me.
on. let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.

Ah, let the midnight special
shine the light on me.
Oh, let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.

Hen!l comes Miss Lucy.
How in the world do ya know?
I can tell by her apron

and by the clothes she wore.

An umbrella on her shoulder,
she got a paper in her hand.
She gonna see the warden

to try to free her man.

80, let the midnight special
shine the light on me.
on. let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.

80, let the midnight special
shine the light on me.
Oh, let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.

I said let the midnight special
shine the light on me, hee.
Oh, let the midnight special

shine its ever lovin&#39; light on me.
