in the twilight zone the movie the opening sequence involves two guys singing . the song goes something like ' let the midnight special shine its light on me, let the midnight special shine its everloving light on me' or something like that. any idea what it is and who its by?

If you go to http://www.letssingit.com and search Midnight Special, it comes up with versions by Van Morrison and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Kazaa comes up with many more possibilities including Johnny Rivers, John Fogerty, and Leadbelly. Don't know which is the version from the film, but it may be one of them.
