Van morrison midnight special lyrics

Let the midnight special 

 Let the midnight special 

 Shine its light on me 

 Shine a light on me, 

 Let the midnight special 

 Let the midnight... 

 Shine its ever-loving light on me 

 Ever loving light on me. 

 Yonder come miss Rosey, 

 How in the world do you know, 

 How in the world do you know ? 

 Well, I know her by her apron 

 And the dress she wore. 

 Umbrella on her shoulder, 

 A piece of paper in her hand, 

 She gonna tell old John 

 She want back her man, 

 She want back her man. 

  

 Let the midnight special 

 Let the midnight special 

 Shine its light on me 

 Shine a light on me. 

 Let the midnight special 

 Let the midnight... 

 Shine its ever-loving light on me 

 Ever loving light on... 

  

 If you ever go to Houston, 

 Yeah, you better walk right, 

 You'd better not gamble 

 And sure thing better not fight. 

 The next thing you know 

 The sheriff gonna arrest you 

 And some judge send you down 

 And you can bet your bottom dollar 

 Lord, you'll be chaingang bound, 

 Chaingang bound. 

  

 Let the midnight special 

 Let the midnight 

 Shine its light on me 

 Shine, shine, shine, shine, 

 Let the midnight special 

 Shine on, 

 Shine its ever-loving light on me 

 Shine on me, yeah. 

  

 Let the midnight special 

 Shine, shine, shine, 

 Shine its light on me 

 Shine, shine on me, 

 Let the midnight special 

 Way into midnight, 

 Shine its ever-loving light on me 

 Way into midnight, baby, 

 Let the midnight special 

 Waah
