Midnight Rider

I've been traveling down these highways
Since the spring of sixty nine
And I've drove all across this nation
Returning home when I had time
But I drive rigs to make a living
Traveling from sea to shining sea
The truckers call me Midnight Rider
Cause it's at night that you'll see me

I'm the Midnight Rider
When they see my lights
Every trucker out there knows that it's me
From Birmingham to Santa Fe
I haul by night and rest by day
And the freedom of highway calls to me

I've been traveling down these highways
Since the spring of sixty nine
And I've drove all across this nation
Returning home when I had time
But I drive rigs to make a living
Traveling from sea to shining sea
The truckers call me Midnight Rider
Cause it's at night that you'll see me

Tonight I'm hauling my last load
And then I'm heading homeward bound
I'll retire and be content by Arna's side
No more cities no more nights away
My love I'm coming home to stay
And I'll be with you until the day I die

I've been traveling down these highways
Since the spring of sixty nine
And I've drove all across this nation
Returning home when I had time
But I drive rigs to make a living
Traveling from sea to shining sea
The truckers call me Midnight Rider
Cause it's at night that you'll see me
