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 rider And 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 rider And I've gone by the point of caring Some old bed I'll soon be sharing And I've got one more silver dollar But 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 I'm not gonna let them catch the midnight rider But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider
