Well, I've got to run to keep from hidin'
And I'm bound to keep on ridin'
And I've got one more silver dollarBut I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderAnd I don't own the clothes I'm wearing
And the road goes on forever
And I've got one more silver dollarBut I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderAnd I've gone by the point of caring
Some old bed I'll soon be sharing
And I've got one more silver dollarBut I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderNo, I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderNo, I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderNo, I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
