BUDDY MILES

- Midnight Rider Lyrics

I got to run to keep from hiding,
And I'm down to keep on riding.
I got one more silver dollar,

And I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no,
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

I don't own the clothes I'm wearing,
And the road goes on forever,
I got one more silver dollar,

And I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

Yes I'm past the point of caring,
Some old bed I'll soon be sharing,
I got one more silver dollar,
And I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

Well I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

Well I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

Yes I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
Ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.
