Night rider, night rider

You may think that it's the breeze

Whispering through the lonely trees

But it's only him a-flying round the bend

As the day comes to an end Night rider, night rider

He came riding into town

As the sun was going down

Saw my baby and he smiled her heart away

Now what will I do, today Cautioned my baby to stay at home

Not to leave mama's side

She laughed when I told her take care, take care

Or you'll share in his midnight ride Night rider, night rider

Since he stole around the side

I ain't had a peaceful night

Night rider, won't you let my baby be

Come on, send her back to me Cautioned my baby to stay at home

Not to leave mama's side

She laughed when I told her take care, take care

Or you'll share in his midnight ride Night rider, night rider

You may think that it's the breeze

Whispering through the lonely trees

But it's only him a-flying round the bend

As the day comes to an end
