The midnight special - Creedence (1969) (with lyrics)




Live



(Lyrics)

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

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

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a ever-lovin 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

Umbrella on her shoulder
Piece of paper in her hand
She come to see the governor
She want to free her man

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a ever-lovin light on me

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)
Or the sheriff will grab you
And the boys will bring you down
The next thing you know boy,
Well, you're prison bound

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a ever-lovin light on me

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me

Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine a ever-lovin light on me

Molina - Creedence (1970) (with lyrics)




Live 1999 - Festival de Viña del Mar, Chile 



(Lyrics)
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?

She's daughter to the mayor,
Messin' with the sheriff,
Drivin' in a blue car,
She don't need no red light.


Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?

She's comin' in the mornin'
Lookin' a disaster,
Drivin' in the prowl car,
Spent the night in jail.


Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?

(Instrumental) 

Sheriff gonna go far
Drivin' to the state house,
If she makes a million,
Papa can retire.

Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?
Moli-i-i-i-na, where you goin' to ?

Hey tonight - Creedence (1970) (with lyrics)







Hey tonight - John Forget (live)




(Lyrics)


Hey, tonight,
Gonna be tonight,
Don't you know I'm flyin'
Tonight, tonight.

Hey, c'mon,
Gonna chase tomorrow
Tonight, tonight.

Gonna get it to the rafters,
Watch me now.
Jody's gonna get religion
All night long.

Hey, c'mon,
Gonna hear the sun
Tonight, tonight.

(Instrumental)

Gonna get it to the rafters,
Watch me now.
Jody's gonna get religion
All night long.

Aaaah!
Hey, tonight,
Gonna be tonight,
Don't you know I'm flyin'
Tonight, tonight.
Tonight, tonight.

Proud Mary - Creedence (1969) (with lyrics)

1969



live 1970


(Lyrics)

Left a good job in the city,
Working for The Man every night and day,
And I never lost one minute of sleeping,
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,
Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans,
But I never saw the good side of the city,
Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

(Instrumental)

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

(Instrumental)

If you come down to the river,
Bet you gonna find some people who live.
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money,
People on the river are happy to give.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

Who'll stop the rain? Creedence (1970) (with lyrics)




(Lyrics)

Long as I remember
The rain been comin' down
Clouds of mystery pourin'
Confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages,
Tryin' to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain?

I went down Virginia,
Seekin' shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable,
I watched the tower grow
Five years plans and new deals,
Wrapped in golden chains
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain?

Heard the singers playin',
How we cheered for more
The crowd had rushed together,
Tryin' to keep warm
Still the rain kept pourin',
Fallin' on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain?
