Night Rider

You're ridin' along

The highway is your code

You only ride

When the sun goes down

The road you ride

Leads you right out of town

You're never seen

In the bright of day

The moon and stars

Light your way

You're all alone

On a concrete sea

You only ride

Nocturnally

Shadows fall

And you're on your way

Got to go

No time to stay

The sun goes down

And night creatures howl

And then you start

On your evening prowl

The world sleeps

And night rider creeps

And night rider lurks

The road you ride

It never ends
