The Midnight Special - Lonnie Donegan's Skiffle Group/Chris Barber
Ah wake up early in the morning
In the ding dong ring
Go walking to the table
See the same damn thing
Knife and fork on the table
Nothing in my pan
But if I can plan about it
I'm in trouble with the man
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever lovin' light on me
If you ever go to Houston
Boy you better walk right
Now you better not stagger
And you better not fight
Or the Sheriff gonna arrest you
And carry you down
And if the Jury find your guilty
You're penitentiary bound
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever lovin' light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever lovin' light on me
Yonder comes Mrs Rossie
How in the world do you know
I tell you boy
I can tell her by her apron
And the dress she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder
Piece a paper in her hand
Oh she try to tell my captain
To please release my man
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever lovin' light on me
I done my time boy
Hoot holler and cryin'
Well the man's gonna call me
And I'll be ridin' down the line
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever lovin' light on me
