Big midnight special shine your light on me Big midnight special shine your everlovin' light on me Woke up this morning heard the whistle blow The jailer said come boy it's time to go Big midnight special I've never had the blues so in my life before Till my baby left me at the station door Big midnight special They put him in a Pullman guards around his door Said you off to Atlanta to serve ten years more Big midnight special He looked all around him in the Pullman car Saw the men wearin' clothe hats smoking big cigars Big midnight special Took him off in Atlanta at the end of the line Said you start servin' time boy for your awful crime Big midnight special That whistle makes me lonesome of the midnight train But he knows I'm waitin' till he brings him home again Big midnight special Shine your light on me
