Well, I've got to run to keep from hiding
And I'm bound to keep on riding
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them 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 dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight riderI've gone by the point of caring
Some old bed I'll soon be sharing
And I've dropped one more silver dollar
No, I'm not gonna let em catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider
No, I'm not gonna let em catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider
No, I'm not gonna let em catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider
