G C
Well, you wake up in the morning, boy.
G
You hear the ding dong ring.
D
Then you look upon the table, boy.
G
You see the same darn thing.
#2.
G C
You find no food upon the table, boy.
G
There's no fork up in the pan.
D
But you better not complain, boy.
G
You'll get in trouble with the man.
CHORUS:
G7 C G
Let the midnight special, shine it's light on me.
D G
Let the midnight special, shine it's everloving light on me.

G C
Well, yonder comes Miss Rosie, boy.
G
How in the world do you know?
D
By the way she wears her apron, boy.
G
And the clothes she wore.
#4.
G C
The umbrella on her shoulder,
G
Piece of paper in her hand.
D
Well, she come to see the Governor,
G
She wants to free her man.
CHORUS:

Let the midnight special, shine it's light on me.
D G
Let the midnight special, shine it's everloving light on me.

G7 C
Now, if you're ever in Houston, boy.
G
Well, you better do right.
D
Hey, you better not gamble, boy.
G
And you better not fight.

Boy, the sheriff, he'll grab you.
G
And the boys will pull you down.
D
And the next thing you know, boy.
G
You're prison bound.
CHORUS:
G7 C G
Let the midnight special, shine it's light on me.
D G
Let the midnight special, shine it's everloving light on me.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
