Midnight Special (Remastered)

Yonder comes Miss Rosie
How in the world do you know?
Well, I know her by the apron and the dress she wore.
Umbrella on her shoulder,
Piece of paper in her hand,
Well, I'm callin' that Captain,
'Turn a-loose my man.'

Let the Midnight Special shine her light on me.
Oh let the Midnight Special shine her ever-lovin' light on me.
When you gets up in the morning,
When that big bell ring.
You go marching to the table
You meet the same old thing.
Knife and fork are on the table
Ain't nothing in my pan.
And if you say a thing about it
You have a trouble with the man.

If you ever go to Houston,
Boys, you better walk right,

And you better not squabble
And you better not fight.
Benson Crocker will arrest you,
Jimmy Boone will take you down.
You can bet your bottom dollar
That you're Sugarland bound.

Well, jumping Little Judy,
She was a mighty fine girl.
She brought jumping
To the whole round world.
Well, she brought it in the morning
Just a while before day.
Well, she brought me the news
That my wife was dead.
That started me to grieving,
Whooping, hollering, and crying.
And I began to worry
About my great long time.
