Midnight Rider - Saxon
Written by：Gill/Graham Oliver/Paul Quinn/Peter Byford/Saxon/Stephen Dawson
Ride the silver eagle
Out of jfk
Up the eastern seaboard
Destination portland maine
When we saw the people
At the concert hall
The seats were for five thousand
It made us feel so small
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the states
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Stopped off at niagara
Taking pictures of the falls
Tried to 'cross the border
Were accosted by the law
People down in texas
From the red hot burning sun
They couldn't stand the heatwave
But we just kept rollin' on
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the States
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Driving into nashville
On the highway interstate
Had a holdup on the freeway
We end up being late
Flew into chicago
But we never heard the blues
Played some rock 'n' roll
There then down to batton rouge
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the states
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the states
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Fought the vigilante
At the end of our first tour
We made a lot of friends there
We'll see them all next year
As we fought the big deadline
We won't forget the days
We rode the silver eagle
Right across the USA
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the states
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
On our journey 'cross the states
Midnight rider keeps on rollin'
Right on through the USA
Midnight rider
Midnight rider
Midnight rider
Midnight rider
