Let the Midnight Special shine its light on me |

The Midnight Special to Santa Fe. |

If you ever go to Houston, oh you better walk right |
|
Well, you better not stagger and you better not fight |

'Cause the sheriff will arrest you and he'll carry you down |
|
You can bet your bottom dollar, you're penitentiary bound. |

Wake up early in the morning, hear the ding dong ring |
|
Go walkin' to the table, see the same damn thing |
|
Let the Midnight Special shine its light on me |
|
The Midnight Special to Santa Fe. |

When you wake up in the morning, hear the rooster crow |
|
Don't wanna work but I got to go |

Don't wanna leave my baby, leave her all alone |
|
'Cause when I get back, she may be gone. |

Get your ticket at the station, get your dinner on board |

Let the Midnight Special shine its light on me |
