Game Size

In the barrio you gotta learn how to survive 
Cause you never know When it's your turn to take a dive 
 
So you go through each day 
With your eyes in the back of your head 
You never know if you'll be alive or be dead 

That is why always have it 
You carry a midnight special 
Never leave home without it 
Always better with a midnight special 

In the dark on the street 
Never know who you're gonna meet 
No problem you got a midnight special

Long Version


In the barrio you gotta learn how to survive 
Cause you never know when it's your turn to take a dive 

☆ 
So you go through each day 
With your eyes in the back of your head 
You never know if you'll be alive or be dead 

LITTLE JOHNYY SMITH, they nearly laid that boy to rest 
But he's still alive - thank God, he must be heaven blessed 

But you know that somewhere 
There's a bullet that says your name 
You can't avoid the danger it's part of this game 

★ 
That is why always have it 
You carry a midnight special 
Never leave home without it 
Always better with a midnight special 

In the dark on the street 
Never know who you're gonna meet 
No problem you got a midnight special 

☆ repeat 
★ repeat
