Well, I've got to run to keep from hiding
And I'm bound to keep on riding
And I want more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let 'em 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 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
And I'm gon' pass 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 'em catch the midnight rider
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
