Original lyrics
<p>Well, you wake up in the morning
You hear the work bell ring
And they march you to the table
To see the same old thing</p><p>Ain't no food upon the table
And no pork up in the pan
But you better not complain, boy
You get in trouble with the man</p><p>Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a ever loving light on me</p><p>Yonder come miss Rosie
How in the world did you know
By the way she wears her apron
And the clothes she wore</p><p>Umbrella on her shoulder
Piece of paper in her hand
She come to see the governor
She want to free her man</p><p>If you're ever in Houston,
Well you'd better do the right
You'd better not gamble
And you better not fight (at all)</p><p>Or the sheriff will grab you
And the boys will bring you down
The next thing you know boy,
Well you're prison bound</p>
