Lyrics Midnight Rider / Wanted Dead or Alive - Richie Sambora

I got to run to keep from hidin
And Im bound to keep on ridin
I got one more silver dollar
But Im not gonna let them catch
The midnight rider
I got only the clothes Im wearin
And the road goes on forever
I got one more silver dollar
And Im not gonna let them catch
The midnight rider

I own all the clothes Im wearin
Some old bed Ill soon be sharin
Got me one more silver dollar
And Im not gonna let them catch
The midnight rider

Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Not gonna let em catch me
Come on
Keep on riding
Keep on riding
Keep on riding
Midnight, midnight rider

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday, it seems we're wastin' away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I drive all night just to get back home

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
The people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're all alone all you do is think

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
Wanted (wanted) dead or alive

Oh, and I ride!

(Yeah!)

Oh, and I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive

I walk these streets
A loaded six-string on my back
I play for keeps 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, still, I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
And I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive (I still drive) dead or alive
Dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive
