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 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 wearin' 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 passed 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
