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 ´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´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 ´em catch the midnight rider

No, I´m not gonna let ´em catch me, no
Not gonna let ´em catch the midnight rider

No, I´m not gonna let ´em catch me, no
Not gonna let ´em catch the midnight rider

No, I´m not gonna let ´em catch me, no
Not gonna let ´em catch the midnight rider
