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
D G
As the day comes to an end

Night rider, night rider

He came riding to town

As the sun was going down

Saw my baby and he smiled her heart away
D G
Now, what will I do today?

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 you stole her out of sight

I ain't had a peaceful night

Night rider, won't you let my baby be?

Come on, send her back to me
