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
(Repeat three times and Fade)
But I`m not gonna let `em catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the Midnight Rider
