The Brothers Four-The Midnight Special
小子，在休斯顿这儿走路的时候可别瞎闹
If you ever go to Houston boy better walk alright,
踉跄了不行，摆谱更是扯淡
You'd better not stagger and you'd better not fight.
光这两样就够阿sir拷你回局子让你撂
For a sheriff will arrest you, and take you on down,
要是法官认定你有罪——爷们儿你牢狱之灾怕是免不了
when the jury finds you guilty - buddy, you're prison bound.
三更天儿里，一阵轰鸣把你叫
彳亍到桌前，瞅见窗外来的还是那个老伙计
Well, you wake up in the prison, ya hear the ding-dong ring,
坐在桌前，心想着“任人宰割”也就这么个劲儿
Then you march to the table, you see the same old thing.
所有念想都只能烂在肚子里——可别惹到老炮
Well you sitting on the table, like a pork in the pan
快让午夜特快的灯火带我离开
And if you say a thing about it, you're in trouble with the man.
快让午夜特快的灯火带我永远离开这鬼地方
我的Linda能给我捎杯也能给我带点茶
Oh, let the midnight special shine a light on me.
她把整个世界都给了我，可就是没能给我把监狱钥匙
Let the midnight special shine a ever-loving light on me.
快让午夜特快的灯火放我自由吧
Linda brought a cup of coffee and she brought a little tea;
可这灯火却转瞬即逝
She brought me nearly everything, except a jailhouse-key.
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
let the midnight special shine a ever-loving light on me.
