Night Rider

Ride on night rider
Roll into the night
You ain't no daily driver
And you don't take advice
Creep on night creeper
Bounce between the lanes
Just recline your recliner
And steer with your knees

[Chorus:]
All alone on the highway
There's no other kind of life
With which a night ridden' loner
Would rather waste his time

Ride on night rider
Go on and take your rest
Lay it down on the highway
And let it just roll off your chest
You can yell to keep yourself from sleeping
Or just trust in the road
Understand the spirit of the highway
Won't let you lose control

[Chorus]

Ride on night rider
Roll your iron steed
Jamming gears and kicking tires
Have always been your dream
So fill your stomach with garbage
And sit down for days on end
Drinking gallons of coffee
And wishing that you only had a friend

But you're alone on the highway
And you know how time can crawl
So thank God for Billy Joe Shaver and Tom T. Hall
