(Suara motor mengaum samar di kejauhan, lalu masuk beat...)
Chrome wheels shining in the moonlight
Leather soul, burning for the fight
No chains, no rules, just open road
My story’s written in the smoke
Headlights dancing on the line
I’m chasing fate, I’m out of time
I’m the midnight rider
Running wild, burning fire
No turning back, no slowing down
I’m a shadow in this town
Hear the thunder when I roll
Freedom’s written on my soul
I’m the midnight—
Midnight rider
Every mile leaves the past behind
A rebel’s heart is hard to bind
I’ve loved and lost, but never stayed
The night is where I’m unafraid
Wind’s my witness, stars my guide
I ride alone, but feel alive
I’m the midnight rider
Running wild, burning fire
No turning back, no slowing down
I’m a shadow in this town
Hear the thunder when I roll
Freedom’s written on my soul
I’m the midnight—
Midnight rider
(Bluesy dengan wah pedal, kesan seperti “Highway Star” meets “Still Loving You”)
You can chase the light... but I was born in the dark.
I’m the midnight rider
Running wild, burning fire
No one tells me when to stop
I’ll keep rolling till I drop
Through the silence and the storm
This is how I was reborn
I’m the midnight—
Midnight rider
