Artist/Band: Pete Seeger
Lyrics for Song: Midnight Special
Lyrics for Album: Una Leyenda [2007]



One day, one day, Sir

I was walking along

I heard that special

Singing a lonesome song



[Chorus]

Oh, let the Midnight Special

Shine her light on me

Let the Midnight Special

Shine her ever lovin light on me



If you ever go to Houston

You know you better walk right

You know you better not stagger

You know you better not fight

Because the sheriff will just arrest you

You know he'll carry you down

And you can bet your bottom dollar

Oh Lord, you're penitentiary bound



[Chorus]

Yonder come little Rosie

How in the world do you know?

I can tell her by her apron

And the dress she wore

Umbrella on her shoulder

Piece of paper in her hand

Goes a marchin to the Captain

Says I want my man



[Chorus]

Now here comes jumpin' Judy

I'll tell you how I know

You know, Judy brought jumpin'

To the whole wide world

She brought it in the morning

Just about the break of day

You know, if I ever get to jumpin'

Oh Lord, I'll up and jump away.



[Chorus: x 2]
