D MajorD            G+G               D MajorD
Well, you wake up in the mornin, you hear the work bell ring,
             A7A7            D MajorD
And they march you to the table to see the same old thing.
            G+G              D MajorD
Ain't no food upon the table, and no pork up in the pan.
           A7A7                   D MajorD
But you better not complain, boy, you get in trouble with the man.

         G+G            D MajorD
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
         A7A7            D MajorD
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
         G+G            D MajorD
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
         A7A7                 D MajorD
Let the midnight special shine a everlovin light on me.

Yonder come Miss Rosie, how in the world did you know?

By the way she wears her apron, and the clothes she wore.
        G+G                D MajorD
Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand;
          A7A7              D MajorD
She come to see the govnor, she wants to free her man.

         G+G            D MajorD

If you're ever in Houston, well, you better do the right;
        A7A7              D MajorD
You better not gamble, there, you better not fight, at all
          G+G                  D MajorD
Or the sheriff will grab ya and the boys will bring you down.
          A7A7              D MajorD
The next thing you know, boy, oh! You're prison bound.
