I got to run to keep from hidin'
And I'm bound to keep on ridin'
I got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider, oh no

I own all the clothes I'm wearin'
And the road goes on forever
I got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider

I've gone by the point of carin'
Some old bed I'll soon be sharin'
I got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider

But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
No, I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
