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

Well, these ain't my clothes I'm wearin'
An' this ol' road goes on forever
An' I got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
I ain't gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider

Now, I'll be gone, be gone by the point of carin'
Now, some ol' bed, some ol' bed I'll soon be sharin'
I got one more, one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me, no
I ain't gonna let 'em catch midnight rider

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