Midnight Special

(الألبوم: The Kingston Trio (Nick Bob John) - 1964)

Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Oh, let the midnight special shine her everloving light on me

Well, if you ever go to Texas you better walk straight
You better not stop. Hey! You better not wait
For the sheriff will arrest you and your head he'll pound
You'll wake up in the morning; the prison walls all around

Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Oh, let the midnight special shine her everloving light on me

Well, you wake up in the morning and they take you to the train
You better answer to the captain when he calls your name
Then your guts are gonna get you and your body's gonna shake
But they got you on a big chain, so you can't escape

Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Oh, let the midnight special shine her everloving light on me

Yonder comes my woman. How in the world do I know?
Well, I know her by her wiggle and the dress she wore
The last time that I was with her, she made me jump and shout
I'm gonna whip that captain. Watch me jump on out

Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Oh, let the midnight special shine her everloving light on me

Oh, let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Oh, let the midnight special shine her everloving light on me
