Lyrics:

I gotta run to keep from hidin'
And I'm bound to keep on a ridin'
I got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me
No, not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider.

--- Fiddle Instrumental ---

I don't own the clothes I'm wearin'
And the road goes on forever
And I've got one more silver dollar
No, I'm not gonna let 'em catch midnight rider.

--- Guitar - Mandolin - Fiddle Instrumental ---

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

I'm not gonna let 'em catch me
No, I'm not gonna let 'em catch midnight rider.

--- Banjo Instrumental ---

I'm not gonna let 'em catch me
No I'm not gonna let 'em catch midnight rider.

--- Banjo Instrumental ---

I ain't gonna let 'em catch me
No, I ain't gonna let 'em catch midnight rider.

--- Banjo & Fiddle Instrumental to fade ---
