Night Rider

Night rider; you’ve been too long in the saddle
Night rider; you’re lost on the midnight trail
All you cowboys out on the road
You know what I’m talkin’ about
All you do is try to get in
While she’s tryin’ to keep you out
But you know you’re gonna catch her at sundown
That’s when you’ll turn her around
‘Cause you’re a
Night rider; you’ve been too long in the saddle
Night rider; you’re lost on the midnight trail
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout the women there are
And all the ones you never had
No one man can blanket ‘em all
Now don’t you think it’s too damn bad
That a man will spend his lifetime
Dreamin’ that he can
‘Cause he’s a
Night rider; you’ve been too long in the saddle
Night rider; you’re lost on the midnight trail
Night rider; you’ve been too long in the saddle
Night rider; you’re lost on the midnight trail
