Lyrics
You get us in the (C7)mornin' you hear the dingdong you (G)ring.
Now you look upon a (D)table (C7)you see the same damn not (G)thing.
(G)You find no food upon that (C7)table,
nothing up in the (G)pan.
But if you say a thing (D)about it,
(C7)you'd be in trouble with the (G)man.
Alet the midnight (C7)special shine her light on me,
alet the midnight (D)special
(C7)shine her everlovin' (G)light on me.
Well, if you're ever in (C7)Houston,
you'd better walk on you (G)by.
Oh, you'd bet not gamble, (D)boy,
ble (C7)I say you'd better not (G)fight.
(G)Well now, the sheriff, he'll grab (C7)you and
his boys will pull you (G)down.
And then before you know it (D)bout it,
(C7)you're penitentiary (G)bound.
Alet the midnight (C7)special shine her light on me,
alet the midnight (D)special
(C7)shine her everlovin' (G)light on me.
Here if comes ev Miss in (G)light on me.
