[Verse 1]
Yonder come Miss Rosie—how in the world do you know?
Well I know by the apron and the dress she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand
Well I'm callin' that captain, he turn a-loose my man
[Chorus]
Let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Let the midnight special, shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[Verse 2]
When you gets up in the mornin', when that big bell ring
You go and march to the table, you meet the same old thing
Knife and fork are on the table, ain't nothin' in my pan
And if you say anything about it, you have a trouble with the man
[Chorus]
Let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Let the midnight special, shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[Verse 3]
If you ever go to Houston, boys you better walk right
And you better not squabble, you better not fight
Benson Crocker will arrest you, Eddie Boone will take you down
You can bet your bottom dollar, that you're Sugarland-bound
Yonder come Miss Rosie—how in the world do you know?
Well I know by the apron and the dress she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand
Well I'm callin' that captain, he turn a-loose my man
[Chorus]
Let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Let the midnight special, shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[Verse 2]
When you gets up in the mornin', when that big bell ring
You go and march to the table, you meet the same old thing
Knife and fork are on the table, ain't nothin' in my pan
And if you say anything about it, you have a trouble with the man
[Chorus]
Let the midnight special, shine her light on me
Let the midnight special, shine her ever-lovin' light on me
[Verse 3]
If you ever go to Houston, boys you better walk right
And you better not squabble, you better not fight
Benson Crocker will arrest you, Eddie Boone will take you down
You can bet your bottom dollar, that you're Sugarland-bound
